I’ve found a song not by Patricia Smith at As One Voice. This is seriously good folk song about prayer from John Coleman and Noel Davis. It is probably best as a solo. Songs as nice as this make a good case for revisiting the Willow site for new songs and new artists frequently.
The sheet music can be purchased at Willow. You can listen to John Coleman sing the song at Bandcamp.
The sheet music has a lengthy instrumental before the repetition of the words, presumably for contemplative prayer.
In the silence, we hear music.
In the stillness, we dance your prayer and our prayer comes alive
As we lose ourselves in the dance.
