Prayer for Church Musicians
"Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp." – Psalm 149:3
"The LORD was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD." – Isaiah 38:20
"My heart, O God, is steadfast, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. Awake, my soul! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples." – Psalm 57:7-9
Whether you’re a musician or not, you understand that music has a unique ability to touch the soul and connect us to something greater than ourselves. In times of creative blocks or when seeking inspiration, musicians often turn to prayer for guidance and inspiration.
Here is an uplifting prayer suitable for church musicians.
Prayer:
Creator God, You hear us, our words in prayer, our silent thoughts and pleas and each note or melody we sing and play. May our praises today connect with heaven and unite our hearts with the sound of eternity. Lord, may the gifts of our voices and melodies of our instruments move with the work of Your Holy Spirit. May we bring light into dark places, restore hope and vision to all who are oppressed, and well-being and health to all those who suffer. Today Lord, we give You our worship. May it be a platform for You, Father God, to touch our lives afresh and build your church. Amen.
