A prayer for musicians

I wrote this prayer when the Friends of Cathedral Music were visiting Evensong
 but you can use it for any musical group. 
Please feel free to use if you find it useful in any way. 

O God who gave the universe its melody,
and placed rhythm into our heartbeat,
Bless N
and all who work to give a glimpse of the harmonies
of heaven to the people of our world. 
May our ears be ever open to the prompting of your Spirit;
may our eyes be ever open to the beauty of your world;
may our voices dress your church with the songs of light and life
that we might partner with the angels in their never-ending hymn of praise
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
