PRAYER OF ST. PATRICK
May you arise today,
God's strength to pilot you,
God's might to uphold you,
God's wisdom to guide you,
God's eye to look before you,
God's ear to hear you,
God's word to speak for you,
God's hand to guard you,
God's shield to protect you,
Christ before you,
Christ behind you,
Christ beneath you,
Christ above you,
Christ within you,
Christ on your right,
Christ on your left,
Christ when you lie down,
Christ when you sit down,
Christ when you rise up,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of you,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of you,
Christ in every eye that sees you,
Christ in every ear that hears you.
Amen.
