I’m expanding on Fiona Dybell’s presentation she gave in 2018 looking at “road tested repertoire for prayer services at Catholic Secondary Schools”.
Who Will Speak by Marty Haugen (there is a misprint on the handout – it’s not by Bernadette Farrell).
This is the ultimate social justice hymn/prayer but I find hard to play without getting “sing songy”. I sort of do it with a reggae stumble because gospel is beyond me. The sheet music is at GIA. The text is here.
Your Grace Is Enough by Matt Maher
This is a praise and worship song but is indeed a sung prayer on the subject of grace as well. The text is here but it is the Chris Tomlin version that replaces “God of Jacob” with “God” and ruins the wrestling reference, although I note Maher also drops it in his recorded version too. The sheet music is at OCP.
Quietly, Peacefully by Lori True (adapting Dvorak’s New World Symphony”)
This one is new to me but I have a copy in Gather 3 (this also alerted me to the fact that I never got to the third volume of Gather 3rd edition – oh dear). The text is here and you can purchase the sheet music at GIA. It is popular for funerals.
