My Best Prayer 

Be thou my vision,O Lord of my heart,
Be all else but naught to me,
Save that thou art;
Be thou my best thought
In the day and the night,
Both waking and sleeping,
Thy presence my light.
Lyrics: unknown but attributed to Iris Christian poet, Saint Dallân, translated by Eleanor Hull
Music: Irish/Celtic


Words

Make us sensitive, God. Sensitive to the sound of the words which others speak, and to the silences in between.

May we find ways to experience more of the silences – where selfish anger might be turned to compassion and concern for one another.
