Give me silence…give me peace…
Earth Prayer was written in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic by Hannah Brine, with arranger Jennifer Watson and poet Jessica Boatright. This song reflects hope and togetherness, and the power to change who we are to make the world a better place. Is it a prayer? Kind of – we like to think of it as a humanist prayer, but there are no religious references in the song.
Here is the video of Earth Prayer project, made with 100 singers from across the country, who came together in song to launch the piece. This project was in aid of the Central London Samaritans – if you enjoyed the video you can donate to them HERE.
