A very simple but beautiful and calming meditative song which I sang at my mother's recent memorial is actually a Taize prayer,"Confitemini Domino", however I don't imagine that the lyrics are from the original work (the original being Latin, of course).I believe that this tune can be heard on a Taize website.The tune invites wonderful harmonies.The non-denominational lyrics are as follows:In the still of morningLine Breaks
First breath of day
In the first light of dawning
While the night drifts away.
All of time still standing
All creation made new
All the truth of the universe
Now within you.
Keep this moment timeless
In your deepest soul
Hold its beauty in you
Where 'ere you go.
From this day's beginning
Unto evening's golden light
Hold its peace within you
'Til the deep rest of night.
