JAZZ VESPERS PRAYER

 
Could it be, Great Conductor of the Universe
That you see us as instruments
Meant to play together in your Symphony?

 Tell us again how we need to cooperate with
Each other and with You,
Until the composer’s message rings clear
And strong to the world around us.

 Teach us again to read the signs of rhythm
On your musical score
That asks for sounds loud and soft
Long and short … high and low

 Here we are, Divine Maestro,
Ready to make music, ready to play
Ready to use our talents and skills to teach
To guide-to counsel-to serve-to practice.

 Oh, Master Musician, who taught the angels to sing
Hear the music of our instruments
Yet more – the Music that we create together.

 Teach us to play the love songs to your world
So that through us all we will be able to see
Your Love.

 We offer this prayer in the name of
your greatest composer, Jesus Christ. Amen.
