Description
Reflection - Silent Night and meditation
Singers/Choir will sing the first verse.
After the meditation leave a 10 sec pause before singing the next verse.
Repeat that pattern. At end repeat the newly written verse
1 Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon virgin mother and Child Holy
Infant, so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace
Lord, as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, we pray for a true and lasting peace
for our world. Not the peace of the hills or the night sky, not the peace of a mother with her new
born, wonderful as that may be, but true peace across the earth. We pray for the peace that brings
wars to an end, that calms the most troubled mind.
10 sec pause
2. Silent night, holy night Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia Christ the Saviour is born Christ the Saviour is born
Lord, we pray that we might recognise you as the one who can save us from all that we don’t want
to be. We pray we might live a life fully human, a reflection of your own. We pray against the fears
that might stop us reaching our full potential
