Lord's Prayer
Lord's Prayer
music by Peter Amidon
Emma Schneider solo, Rachel Johnson piano. When Pastor Lise Sparrow asked me to have the choir sing "The Lord's Prayer" at a Guilford Community Church Lenten service, I told her I was not crazy about the setting I had often heard, and Lise said, "Then write one."
LYRICS
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
