Burden Bearer

Tune: Taize Chant

('O Lord, hear my prayer')

Psalm 55 v.17-22 parts

********

Evening and morning

My prayer you I bring

Look on me, hear each thing

That I humbly ask

Be it small, great task

I sincere, with no mask

 

He shall come, save me

Show mercy, so be

With His love, strong and free

Deliver my soul

From enemies toll

Restore and make me whole

 

Cast your burden here

On the LORD, Him fear

Be in awe, He is near

He shall you sustain

His help you shall gain

Secure with none of feign

 

He shall not permit

The righteous one whit

To be moved, their path lit

With His presence clear

He does so appear

Safe we be, unmoved here

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE - IM ON A LATE TODAY 2 - 9pm. Repetition is as important in Hymnology as it is in Odology ! Love TAIZE very like Buddhist Chants ! Perhaps we should introduce the Prayer Wheel to help us Pray (collectively) during Lockdown when we have to *Forsake the Assembling of ourselves Together* Just email ones Prayer to the Vicar - He can place it in the Wheel & keep it in the wheel and *Carry on Turning*.
    Love PSALM 55 v 22 *Leave all your troubles with the LORD. He is on your side - He will defend You ! He will never let His Chosen Ones be defeated by Unbelievers - AMEN*

    Blessing & Joy to You & Faithful Fido
    Love in the Spirit A & B 💛💛💛
