Prayer

[HANNAH, spoken]
Beulah walks me to church — and when we
Get there, I light a candle for my son

[BEULAH, spoken]
And I do too

[KEVIN T., spoken]
I suddenly realize what that music from my
Dream — it was an old hymn from when I was
A kid. I haven't been to church in years, but
For some reason that song was in my head

(sung)
Make me a channel of your peace:
Where there is hatred
Let me bring your love
Where there is injury
Your pardon, Lord
And where there's doubt
True faith in you

[HANNAH]
And where there's sadness

[HANNAH & KEVIN T.]
Every joy

[RABBI]

There is a man here in town. He's lived here
Nearly his entire life. He heard that there was
A Rabbi diverted here and he came to find me
And tell me his story

[EDDIE (ACTOR 11), spoken]
I was born in Poland, I think. And my parents
— they were Jews — they sent me here before
The war started — I still remember some of the
Prayers they taught me. As a boy, I was told
I should never tell anyone I was Jewish. Even
My wife. But after what happened on Tuesday
— so many stories gone — just like that. I
Needed to tell someone

[ALI, spoken]
During El-Fagir, when most people are asleep
It is easier to pray. But at Dhuhr, I can feel
Them watching me. Sometimes I catch them
When they think I'm not looking — and I can
See the fear in their eyes

[ANNETTE, spoken]
Excuse me? Beulah wanted me to check on
You. The library's open — for anyone looking
For some peace — and a quiet place to pray
Ali lays out a prayer mat and begins to pray

[RABBI (& EDDIE, hesitantly)]

O MASTER, GRANT THAT
I MAY NEVER SEEK
SO MUCH TO BE CONSOLED
AS TO CONSOLE
TO BE UNDERSTOOD
AS TO UNDERSTAND
TO BE LOVED
AS TO LOVE WITH ALL MY SOUL

[KEVIN T]
Make me a channel of your peace
Where there's despair in life
Let me bring hope
Where there is darkness, only light
And where there's sadness, ever joy
