After Newtown, what can we possibly sing?

Carolyn Gillette wrote the following hymn after the Columbine school massacre of April 20, 1999, and makes it available again for churches’ use (for no charge).

 

HERZLIEBSTER JESU (11.11.11.5) (Ah, Holy Jesus)

God, we have heard it, sounding in the silence:
News of the children lost to this world’s violence.
Children of promise! Then without a warning,
Loved ones are mourning.
