We're singing "Sing me to Heaven" on Sunday. Here's the text:

In my heart's sequestered chambers
lie truths stripped of poet's gloss
Words alone are vain and vacant
and my heart is mute
In response to aching silence, memory summons half-heard voices
and my soul finds primal eloquence, and wraps me in song, wraps me in song
If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby
If you would win my heart, sing me a love song
If you would mourn me and bring me to God, sing me a requiem

Touch in me
all love and passion, pain and pleasure
Touch in me
grief and comfort; love and passion, pain and pleasure
Sing me a lullaby, a love song, a requiem
Love me, comfort me, bring me to God:
Sing me a love song
Sing me to heaven
