The following prayer is an excerpt of the full-length prayer that can be found with the recording “A Love Supreme”; the classic 4 - part suite (Acknowledgement, Resolution, Pursuance, Psalm) composed by John Coltrane and performed by the John Coltrane Quartet. The actual full length prayer was intended to be a Gregorian chant that may be performed in unison with the fourth movement of the suite (Psalm). This prayer is dedicated to the memory of Paul Lagos:
A Love Supreme I will do all that I can to be worthy of thee O Lord It all has to do with it so beautiful…
Peace
There is none other
Help us resolve our fears and weaknesses…. possible God is
He always was
He is gracious and merciful thoughts
It is
In You all things are
He always will be Words, sounds, speech, men, memory,
Fears and emotions – time – all related…. in one
All made from one…all made
Blessed be His name Thought waves – heat waves – all vibrations – All paths lead to God Have no fear… believe…. The fact that we do exist is acknowledgement of Thee O Lord God will wash away all our tears… he always has….He always will Seek Him every day
In all ways seek God everyday
Let us sing all songs to God
To whom all praise is due….
No road is an easy one, but they all go back to God With all we share
It is all with God It is all with Thee.
Obey the Lord
Blessed is He
We are from one thing….
the will of God…. Thank you God
Acknowledgement of A Love Supreme
