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.
