Songtext zu ' Prayer ' von Come From Away (Musical)

[Hannah]
Beulah walks me to church and when we get there, I light a candle for my son

[Beulah]
And I do too

[Kevin T]
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

[Hannah & Kevin T]
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 (let me bring hope)
Where there is darkness, only light (where there is darkness, only light)

[Hannah]
And where there's sadness

[Hannah & Kevin T]
Ever joy

[Rabbi]
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

[Eddie]
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

[Ali]
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

[Annette]
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

[Rabbi & Eddie]
Ya'aseh shalom (ya'aseh shalom)
Ya'aseh shalom (shalom)
Shalom aleinu v'al kol yisrael
Ya'aseh shalom (ya'aseh)
Ya'aseh shalom (shalom)
Shalom aleinu v'al kol yisrael

[Beulah, Hannah, Kevin T & Singer 10]
O master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled
As to console
To be understood
As to understand
To be loved
As to love with all my soul

[JewishPassengers]
Oseh shalom bim'romav

Allahu Akbar
Alhamdulilah

[Kevin T]
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there's despair in life
Let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, only light
And where there's sadness
Ever joy
