Beni Swa Leternel

Prayers with and for Haiti
NewYork TImes Slideshow

...
Then the singing began.
Those gathered outside tents, on lawn chairs,
sitting in the middle of empty streets, sang their hymns.
One phrase in Creole could be heard repeatedly both inside and outside the hospital walls,
as if those voicing the words were trying to make sense of the madness around them.
“Beni Swa Leternel,” they sang. “Blessed be the Lord.”
