Lizzie West sang "The Prayer" from her "Holy Road: Freedom Songs" cd. The lyrics are adapted from a popular poem widely attributed to Mary Frye:
"Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there, I do not sleep. I am in a thousand winds that blow. I am the softly falling snow. I am the gentle showers of rain. I am the fields of ripening grain. I am in the morning hush. I am in the graceful rush of beautiful birds in circling flight. I am the starshine of the night. I am in the flowers that bloom. I am in a quiet room. I am the birds that sing. I am in each lovely thing. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there, I do not die."
