“Clapton
penned this touching hymn to the Blessed Mother when at his lowest. In 1996, Eric Clapton took the stage with
Luciano Pavarotti to sing this beautiful song to the Blessed Mother. The pair
were joined by the East London Gospel Choir for the touching Christian hymn.
The song is a heartfelt plea for Mary’s intercession. Clapton’s lyrics delve into the core of desperation, stating the need for Mary’s presence in his life before exclaiming in lilting tones “I can’t wait any longer.” [J-P Mauro - published on 11/26/20 – in Aleteia 11/29/2020]
May God Be Praised and May His Blessed Mother intercede for me, “I can’t wait any longer.”
COVID 19 Pandemic Prayer
Hear my cry! “Lord, listen to my prayer: turn your ear to my appeal.” You are my refuge and my hope, I turn to you during this COVID 19 Pandemic and plead for Your intercession. In Your mercy and Your compassion “… grant eternal rest to the dead, comfort to mourners, healing to the sick ….” [Psalm 143 and Collect from Mass Time in Pandemic] Provide strength to the first responders, compassion to the medical personnel, and wisdom to government leaders. End this coronavirus scourge. Send Your light to me as I wander in the darkness of this pandemic and give me hope in Your eternal love today and every day. Amen. [Dcn. George Kelly]
