Prayer 歌詞
Prayer - ‘Come From Away’ Original Broadway Cast
Beulah walks me to church
And when we get there
I light a candle for my son
And I do too
I suddenly realize what that music from my dream
It was an old hymn from when I was a kid
I haven't been to church in years
But for some reason that song was in my head
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is hatred
Let me bring your love
Where there is injury
Your pardon Lord
And where there's doubt
True faith in you
Make me a channel of your peace
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there's despair in life
Where there's despair in life
Let me bring hope
Where there is darkness only light
And where there's sadness
Ever joy
Oseh shalom bim'romav
Hu ya'aseh shalom aleinu
V'al kol yisreal
V'imru v'imru amen
There is a man here in town
He's lived here nearly his entire life
He heard that there was a Rabbi diverted here
And he came to find me and tell me his story
I was born in Poland
I think
And my parents
They were Jews
They sent me here before the war started
I still remember some of the prayers they taught me
As a boy
I was told I should never tell anyone I was Jewish
Even my wife
But after what happened on Tuesday
So many stories gone just like that
I needed to tell someone
During El-Fagir
When most people are asleep it is easier to pray
But at dhuhr I can feel them watching me
Sometimes I catch them when they think
I'm not looking and I can see the fear in their eyes
Excuse me Beulah wanted me to check on you
The library's open
For anyone looking for some peace
And a quiet place to pray
Ya'aseh shalom
Ya'aseh shalom
Shalom aleinu v'al kol yisrael
Ya'aseh shalom
Ya'aseh
Ya'aseh shalom
Shalom
Shalom aleinu v'al kol yisrael

Om shaantih
So much to be consoled
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there is hatred
Let me bring your love
Where there is darkness only light
Where there is sadness and hope
