[HANASHIR:10787] Re: GUIDE MY STEPS

[Alan Halpern <alan...>]

We used O Guide My Steps as a niggun at the start of a recent service.  It
was part of a set:  niggun (O Guide), Hinei Ma Tov, Bim Bam, niggun
(Candleblessing) leading to candles lighting and blessing.

We then used it later in the service at the end of the silent prayer.  The
lyrics are close in intent to "May the words of my mouth...."

Haskiveinu is another place to use it, although the "lying down/rising up"
portion is de-emphasized.

Depending on the mood you want to create, you could probably make it a
closing hymn.
