The Lord's Prayer

 

Today I want to offer the melody and musical setting of the Lord’s Prayer we are most familiar with at our church using violin and piano. 

Click above to listen and feel free to sing along!  As the melody of your voice reverberates around you and within you, I wonder:  

What did you feel singing the Lord's Prayer?  

How is would you describe what happens in your heart, soul, body, and mind?  

How is singing the Lord's Prayer different than speaking?  

You may want to say the Lord's Prayer paying attention to what is stirring in your soul.  

Pause.  

Then, sing the Lord's Prayer again noticing and naming what is happening.  

Compare the two experiences.  Not to decide which is better, but to be thankful for the variety of ways the words of this prayer can fall from your lips.  

As always, feel free to post your thoughts in the comment section.  May God's blessing stir and surround you as we explore the variety of musical ways to pray this prayer.
