Prayer of the Singers


Celestial music born in human hearts

And raised in simple choral offering

In this still hour when brightly burns the flame,

Our meditation rises up to Thee.

Grant this day that we may chant as one,

Each soul in adoration merge its sound

In strains of an increasing harmony.

Delight and gratitude essential chords

And love that interweaves life's melodies,

Surrender's song, powerful and vast

To soar from this collective entity.

Let not the mind attempt to interfere

In music that transcends the mental plane,

May it lie still and in that stillness find

A resolution and sincere desire

To join this soaring canticle of man

Aspiring.Through symphony and hymn

Fill, as a great diapason swells

O Lord with Thy immortal bliss, transform

Each devotee in the movements of our song.
