God please bless my music that it might glorify your name

May using it to serve you always be my aim.

Let it be a witness in your majesty and love,

And remind us that you're watching from the throne above.

May others see your beauty in every note they hear.

And when they hear my music, may they feel your presence near.

Oh Lord, I ask for your guidance in everything I do.

And pray you'll make my music an instrument for you.

Amen.

 

Prayer to Staint Cecilia
Patron Saint of Music

O glorious saint, who chose to die instead of denying your King. We pray you please to help us as His fair praise we sing!

We lift our hearst in joyous song to honor Him this way, and while we sing, remembering, to sing is to doubly pray.

At once in our hearts and in our tongues we offer double prayer sent heavenward on winged notes to praise God dwelling there.

While in our hearts and tongues we try with song to praise God twice, we ask dear saint, to help us be united close to Christ!
