"A Prayer of King Henry VI" - Henry G. Ley

On Sundays, I will post "sacred" pieces (as opposed to "secular"), in honor of the Sabbath.

This is one of my all-time favorite choir pieces, which was introduced to me at the wedding of two friends.  The song has a slow tempo, lending a thoughtful feeling to the humble prayer.

Translation:

Lord, Jesus Christ,

who created, redeemed and pre-ordained me

to that which I am,

you know what you would make of me;

make of me according to your will

with mercy.

Amen.
