Taizé Prayer

Background
Taizé began, as a form of prayer, in the little
village of Taizé in northern France during the
Second World War. More precisely this prayer
came from the ecumenical community of
Brothers founded by Br. Roger Louis Schutz-
Marsauche; it has been growing in popularity
and spreading around the world ever since.
Taizé is a fairly simple and straight forward
meditative form of prayer.
Through the use of repetitive phrases, music,
silence, scripture, set and intercessory
prayers, participants are invited to stillness
and to listen for and to the voice of God. One
of the rules of Taizé as stated by Br. Roger is
to keep inner silence always, and you will
dwell in Christ for it is through inner silence
that makes possible our conversation with
God.
Taizé prayer is usually conducted in a church, chapel
or a room and commences in darkness. As the prayer
session proceeds candles or lamps are lit. Candles
are usually given to all present as a symbol of the
presence of the risen Lord. Christ is the center of
Taizé reflection and the light signifies that Jesus
Christ has conquered the darkness of death and sin.
It is through Christ’s sacrifice that an offer of new life
is given. There is hope for humankind; there exists
the real possibility for change, and there is a life we
never dared hope for.

 Psalm 130
Out of the depths I cry to
you, O Lord,
Lord, hear my voice!
O let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my
pleading.
If you, O Lord, should mark our
guilt,
Lord, who would survive?
But with you is found
forgiveness:
for this we revere you.
My soul is waiting for the Lord.
I count on his word.
My soul is longing for the Lord
more than watchman for daybreak.
Let the watchman count on
daybreak
and Israel on the Lord.
Because with the Lord
there is mercy
and fullness of redemption,
Israel indeed he will
redeem
from all its iniquity.
