Andrea Bocelli Sings “Our Father” With the Mormon Tabernacle Choir

Received from a friend | November 17 2011

Before you play the video,
Would you stop for a little while,
And breathe? Breathe gently, easily,
And relax yourself. Sit back, let go
Of the tension in your body.

Just for a little while, let go of the problems
That have beset you. Instead, give thanks.
Breathe. Give thanks for your friends,
For the wonderful people you know of,
For the beauty of the day, for living
In a country where you are free
To speak your mind. Be thankful and peaceful.
You have many things to be thankful for.

Rest easy and breathe gently.
Then, settle into a feeling of peace;
Allow peace to imbue your very soul;
And play the video.

If you so choose,
Would you pray for the world?
Would you pray that His will be done
In America and all the four corners of the world?
Use your own words. Pray from the heart.

And, if you so choose,
Would you repeat this prayer every day –
Every day from now to Thanksgiving?
Each day would you magnify your prayer
Culminating in Thanksgiving day?

If so, on Thanksgiving day, this prayer will go out
With the thunderous voice of a multitude of people
Who now so fervently seek peace.
