Evening Prayer – 3 June 2017

The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow 

A whimsical statue celebrates music

Something that connects generations 

A much needed reminder as the world reels

I think of London and many happy memories 

I think of the terror unleashed in a place

Where music and art and life are celebrated 

So many places around this world, Lord

Where your children suffer and die

Somehow, may the music of the soul

The music that draws children together

Let that music sing loudly over the hate

May the wind of your Spirit blow

A spirit of love

A spirit of reconciliation 

A spirit of unity

A spirit expressed in the gift of music

A spirit, Lord, of peace

Dona Nobis Pacem et in Terra

Grant Us Peace on Earth 

A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
