Recently, I found a really good YouTube channel for meditation.

She is a mother of 3kids, she sings perfectly with the piano when kids are around. 

It makes me smile whenever I saw and also teaches me that in whatever situation, we can sing with our hearts. 

Before, She worked as a music therapist.

 

 

Especially this song is a song based on a poem by Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, “Von guten Mächten wunderbar geborgen 

(With good power).” Pastor Bonhoeffer wrote a letter to his fiancée one winter day in 1944 while he was imprisoned for resisting Hitler's Nazi regime. A poem in the letter contained Christmas greetings to his fiancée, his parents, and his friends.

 

She sings German, English and Korean. This video is for 1 hour for meditation. 

I hope this song may give those who listen to deep meditation for the new year.

Surrounded by such true and gentle powers.
So wondrously consoled and without fear,
Thus will i spend with you these final hours
And then together enter a new year.

By gentle powers lovingly surrounded,
With patience we'll endure, let come what may.
God is with us at night and in the morning
And certainly on every future day.

The worries of the old year still torment us,
We're troubled still by long and wicked days.
Oh Lord give our frightened souls the healing,
For which you've chased us in many ways.

By gentle powers lovingly surrounded,
With patience we'll endure, let come what may.
God is with us at night and in the morning
And certainly on every future day.

And though you offer us the cup so heavy,
So painful, it's the most that we can stand.
Not faltering, with thanks we will accept it
And take it as a gift from your good hand

By gentle powers lovingly surrounded,
With patience we'll endure, let come what may.
God is with us at night and in the morning
And certainly on every future day.

And should it be your will once more to grant us,
To see the world and to enjoy the sun.
Then we will all the past events remember
And finally our life with you is one.

By gentle powers lovingly surrounded,
With patience we'll endure, let come what may.
God is with us at night and in the morning
And certainly on every future day.
