Lord, Show Me the Way
Daily Prayers for Lent and Holy Week 2025
Let the music and lyrics of Christian tradition guide you through
the forty days of Lent toward the joy of Easter.
Inspired by hymns and songs that span generations and cultures,
Lord, Show Me the Way invites you to grasp the spirit of repentance
and conversion this Lent. Learn anew how to set your eyes and
heart on reaching the life-saving waters of Baptismal renewal that
we will embrace when Easter comes.
Each daily devotion offers a reflection on a hymn or song of praise
and worship, a short prayer, and a question or insight to ponder
throughout the day. Let the Spirit move you along on your journey
of faith as you reflect and pray with moving hymns such as “Down
to the River to Pray,” “Amazing Grace,” “I Heard the Voice of Jesus
Say,” “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms,” “’Tis Good, Lord, to Be
Here,” “What Wondrous Love Is This,” and “Were You There.”
An audio recording of each song is easily accessed and via a QR
code at the end of each devotion, and the complete lyrics of each
song are printed in the back of the book for easy reference. With
sixteen different songs and various renditions of each, there is
something for everyone in this distinctive new devotional that will
have you meeting Christ in words, in silence, and in songs both
familiar and new to you.
Rooted in the spirituality and traditions of the Congregation of
Holy Cross, the founding community of the University of Notre
Dame and Ave Maria Press, this book of devotions is affordably
priced for individual and bulk purchases by Catholic parishes,
schools, and other institutions.
