Here are two pieces of music that I will be playing on the piano today during communion. The first one is written by Yurima, a Christian Korean composer and is titled River Flows In You, reminding us that we have rivers of living water within us through Jesus springing up to eternal life. (John 4: 7-14)
The second piece I am playing is familiar to many, The Lord's Prayer. A good friend will be singing it today. THIS LINK has Denyce Graves singing this beautiful piece with accompaniment by Dr. Douglas Major, during the National Service of Prayer and Remembrance following September 11, 2001. The song was composed by Albert Hay Malotte in 1935.
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father who art in heaven;
Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven;
Give us this day our daily bread;
And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
And lead us not into temptation;
But deliver us from evil;
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.
Amen.
