They are still praying, online these days, without any guests, every day at 12:30 pm MST (my time zone). And I'm finding that so many of their chants are perfect for the time in which we find ourselves, a time of many uncertainties and concerns. So for the next while, I've decided to give those songs space on my Tuesday moodlings.
This chant is one I've only learned since the brothers started their online prayers on March 16, after they sent home all visitors and volunteers and social-isolated themselves. If you're at all inclined to sing along, these are the lyrics:
Heureux
qui s’abandonne à toi, ô Dieu, dans la confiance du coeur.
Tu
nous gardes dans la joie, la simplicité, le miséricorde.
Happy are those who abandon themselves to you with a trusting heart.
You keep us in joy, simplicity, and mercy.
