Night Prayer, 4th March 1996


This service includes times for silent prayer and reflection, a short one after each reading and chant, and a longer time of silence which will be introduced by the chant Holy Spirit, come to us (9).

In the time of intercession, the first two biddings will be sung by the cantor and followed by the Kyrie (chant 3 on the song sheet) sung by all; after that, you are welcome to add your own spoken biddings for prayer, after each of which will be followed by the Kyrie.
