Peace


Lay your hands gently upon us,

Let their touch render your peace,

May they bring your healing and forgiveness,

Lay your hands, gently lay your hands.
I learnt this song while on teaching practice 25 years ago in a Catholic school. The lilting tune and prayerful words were a source of blessing and strength. I have not come across it anywhere since but it was etched in my mind so strongly that now I am back in the classroom, I find myself singing it again and finding the same blessing is still there!
