My prayers...

Interestingly, since my dad passed - my prayers have not so much been conversations or asks of God.  My prayers have been Catholic church songs that we grew up with at mass.  We Have Been Told, Here I am Lord, One Bread one Body....

One time our cantor at mass told us when you sing you pray twice.  Maybe that explains it.  Or maybe they're just comforting.  I'm grateful for my Catholic upbringing which has been the best consolation through this difficult time.

You are Mine

I will come to you in the silence
I will lift you from all your fear
You will hear My voice
I claim you as My choice
Be still, and know I am near

I am hope for all who are hopeless
I am eyes for all who long to see
In the shadows of the night,
I will be your light
Come and rest in Me

Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

I am strength for all the despairing
Healing for the ones who dwell in shame
All the blind will see, the lame will all run free
And all will know My name

Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

I am the Word that leads all to freedom
I am the peace the world cannot give
I will call your name, embracing all your pain
Stand up, now, walk, and live

Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine
