“Whoever sings, prays twice”
These simple songs are offered as companions for your private communion with the Loving One.
They are also resources for those of you who guide small group gatherings. You may find them useful as you cultivate space for communal prayer or to begin a gathering.
Check back periodically as we will add more songs to the list.
Chant-Songs
Some invitations:
You’ll find the text for each chant-song under the title.
Change the pronouns to fit your use - “our” to “my.” Choose a name for the Holy One that speaks to your soul.
Don’t determine where it will end; how many times you will sing it. Allow the song to draw you deeper into a time of prayer and communion. Sing it over and over until it naturally fades away.
Consider moving your body as you sing - uniting body and voice into an embodied prayer. Don’t overthink it, simply allow your body to move as it feels led.
Expand the chant by adding your own words.
