prayer song
Sung religious devotion
A prayer song is a musical composition intended as communication with a deity or divine presence.
The term appears across religious traditions—from Native American ceremonial chants to Christian hymns to Islamic devotional music.
Unlike secular songs about spirituality, a prayer song functions as the prayer itself: The congregation joined in the prayer song before communion.
