I have been looking at the mantras in Monica Brown’s collection Holy Ground that I got second hand. It is still available as a download from Emmaus.
This one is based on 1 Cor 4:7-8. It sounds like something for a retreat.
Fashioned and formed as earthen vessels.
Fragile and easily broken
Yet holding a treasure, a wealth untold.
As earthen vessels we are.

This is a lovely mantra is suitable for Anointing and Lent at the very least. It is by Monica Brown from her collection, Holy Ground.
Healing is Your touch, O God, renewing the spirit of the broken.
Healing is Your touch, O God, renewing the spirit of the broken.

There are a few more mantras from Monica Brown’s collection Holy Ground to get through.
This one is based on Isaiah 42:3.
The collection is available as sheet music to download for $A5 at Emmaus.
He does not break the crushed reed nor quench the wavering flame.
In Jesus’ name, in Jesus’ name, can we not do the same?
In Jesus name.

These Monica Brown mantras are a real consolation.
They are from Holy Ground, available at her website, Emmaus.
My backing just does the first melody line initially then brings in the second line for the last repeat.
First melody line
Let your heart take comfort all you who hope in God. (rpt)
Second melody line
Treat me tenderly, O God and I shall live.
For in You I place my trust.
In You, O God I place all my hope.
This is another lovely Monica Brown mantra from Holy Ground, this time based on Psalm 58.
The sheet music for the whole collection is available for download at her site for $A5.
O my strength, it is you to whom I call.
For you are the God who is my stronghold.
The God who shows me love.
