My Morning Prayer:
Seven Daily Services for People on the Go
In this hectic world, oftentimes we forsake our prayer lives for the demanding pressures of day-to-day
New!
living. My Morning Prayer was conceived out of the desire to find alternate ways for people to spend
time in prayer. Ideal for commuters, this two-CD set contains seven separate settings of morning prayer, one for each
day of the week. Each service lasts for approximately twenty minutes and includes a morning hymn, two psalms with
psalm prayers, a Scripture passage, a canticle, intercessions, the Lord’s Prayer, a concluding prayer, and a blessing.
Not only is this prayer resource useful for those who pray during the solitude of their morning commute—this
CD might also be used in small group settings or by anyone who finds it challenging to pray in a meaningful way on
a regular basis. Just pop it in, pick a day, and pray! You will find many familiar titles, providing an opportunity to memorize the services after repeated use. The
musical settings of the canticle, intercessions, Lord’s Prayer, and blessing are repeated each day, while the hymns and psalms are unique to each day. Some of the
authors and composers on this CD set include Michael Joncas, Michel Guimont, Ruth Duck, Liam Lawton, David Haas, Lynn Trapp, The Dameans, Joseph Gelineau,
John Bell, Michael Mahler, and Taizé.
Note: Each day of the week has two tracks on these CDs; the odd numbered tracks are the beginning of the day’s service, the even-numbered tracks begin
with the Canticle of Zechariah.

With love and faith, the tradition of our Church is passed from generation to generation. As Morning Breaks and
Evening Sets introduces young people to the biblical form of prayer known as the Liturgy of the Hours.
From the hands of three of today’s “next generation” of liturgical composers, Tony Alonso, Michael Mahler, and
Lori True, this recording and music collection offer seventeen wonderful new contemporary settings of psalms,
canticles, and hymns for morning and evening prayer.
The music in this collection corresponds to the book As Morning Breaks and Evening Sets: Liturgical Prayer
Services for Ordinary and Extraordinary Events in the Lives of Young People by Tony Alonso, Laurie Delgatto, and
Robert Feduccia, published by St. Mary’s Press. This book is filled with simple yet profound prayer experiences that speak to the everyday lives of young
people.
