PotH Playlist, Track Six: Prayer of the Handmaiden

A beautiful song that makes me think of the consummate prayer of an Ithyrian priestess… Operatica, “Shine.”

Hear the sound of your own dreams
And watch them disappear, as anger turns to fear
Life has not been what it seems
The words you held like secrets have lost their memories
Where’s your heart’s desire?
Make a wish and close your eyes and shine
Shine on me
Keep me from the shadows
Shine on love, shine on life
Help me find tomorrow

As the day turns into night
The windows become mirrors, and I am left with myself
Strangers glide from left to right
We dance like jilted lovers and pray for morning light
Pain is all around
Hold my hand and teach my heart to shine
Shine on me
Keep me from the shadows
Shine on love, shine on life
Help me find tomorrow
Shine on love, shine on life
Keep me from the shadows
Shine on life, shine on love
Help me find tomorrow

Rise up higher, shine
Hear the sound of your own dreams
Higher, higher, shine
Hear the sound of your own dreams
Rise up, higher, shine on me
Rise up, higher, shine on me
