Praying to the Chiming of a Clock
If you have a clock in your town or home that chimes the quarter hour, you can easily say a prayer on the hour that can be sung to the chimes. Here are two different prayers you can use.
From Mary Lou Carney, Senior Editor, Guideposts
Mary Lou had a clock in her hallway that chimes the full 16 notes of the Westminster chimes on the hour. This is the four part prayer that she learned as a child listening to the clock.
Lord through this hour,
Be thou our guide.
Kept by thy power,
No foot shall slide.
From my own experience.
Here is a prayer that I learned that can be sung to Westminster chimes. This one is more of a table blessing:
Hark to the chimes,
Come bow your head
We thank thee Lord
For this good bread
