Key-song

(adapted quote from The Prologue, Homily of January 26

Saint Nikolai Velimirovic; used here as a chant)



Behold, I besought thee, and thou wouldest not hear; 

I besought my God, and He hath heard me.

–from the life of Saint Scholastica, here



From the glance

      of the Holy One,

        chains

                   fall,


Yes even from 

        the thoughts

           of the Holy One,

              chains  

                

fall…




*From prompt: Create one’s own chant as inspired by a quote or verse that are drawn to. An exercise from Paulette Meier’s Chanting Together as a Spiritual Practice (through The Hive) , a course given the Tuesdays of January 18-Febuary 8. 2022.
