Album Notes

This angelic collection of comforting prayers and soothing lullabies is sure to capture the hearts of new mothers and their babies. It softly celebrates the "divine hours of motherhood' from morning Lauds to evening Vespers. These prayers and lullabies reframe motherhood as a divine and spiritual practice that blesses both mother and child.

As a new mother, I sought a spiritual framework for the hours of mothering and found it in the monastic hours of prayer. Thinking about my time with my son as times of worship instead of times of effort transformed our relationship and my life. I began to write lullabies and prayers for us and suddenly I was not lonely getting up at 3am. Motherhood became my spiritual practice. It is my hope that these prayers and lullabies will bless your life as they have blessed mine.

All of songs and prayers were composed and recorded by Amy Robbins-Wilson with the exception of the Ballyeamon Cradle Song which is an old irish lullaby taught to Amy by traditional Celtic singer Aine Ui Chellaigh.

By itself or in combination with Amy's Mom's Choice Award winning boot, Transformational Mothering-A Prayerful Companion for New Mothers, it makes a unique, supportive and thoughtful gift.
