Sarah Fans..do yourselves a favour
 

If you havent already got yourself Sarah McLachlans 'Prayer of St. Francis' do yourself a favour and check it out.....
The prayer is the 'Peace' prayer attributed to St Francis of Assisi..but the words hold much relevance whatever your belief or path.
Its to be expected that Ms McLachlans divine vocals serve to turn these beautiful words into a song thats a real 'keeper'
For me its definitely up there right alongside the heavenly "Angel"

:tu:

Prayer of St Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O, Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life

I luvz Sarah Mclachlan! The song brought tears to my eyes :TS:

oh god....talk about tears!!!
Was browsing through some Sarah lyrics and found this song..


Hold On


Hold on
Hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

Hold on
Hold on to yourself.
You know that only time can tell

what is it in me that refuses to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing.

My love
you know that you're my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
and my love
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true.

Am I in heaven here or
am I...
At the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face.

Oh god
if you're out there won't you hear me.
I know we're never talked before

and oh god
the man I love is leaving
won't you take him when he comes to your door.

Am I in heaven here or
am I in hell
at the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face

Hold on
hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell

written about a woman whose husband was dying of aids ;(
I dont know if I am brave enough to actually d/l the thing .......
