Oremus

Paul Lisney

This song is called Oremus, which I believe means “Let us pray”. I wrote it on my Breedlove 12 string.

OREMUS

Mary, Mary
You gave your yes
To Angel Gabriel from heaven sent
Mary, Mary
Hail, full of grace
Chosen above all mothers
From you our Savior came

Joseph, Joseph
You gave your yes
And took your holy bride
Saw light pierce the darkness
Joseph, Joseph
Humble, strong in faith
Heeded the warnings
Without question and obeyed

Oremus por invicem
Fiat mihi secundum verbum
Oremus

Jesus, Jesus
You gave your yes
Flew from Your heavenly throne
And the Word became flesh
Jesus, Jesus
You showed the way
Thy will be done You prayed
And by your death we were saved

Let us pray for one another
Be it done unto me according to Thy Word
Let us pray

Father, Abba
Forgive our failings
As we forgive those who have wronged us and sinned
Father, Abba
Grant us the grace
To live Your holy will
and love Your way
