Patrick's Prayer

Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.

I bind unto myself the Name,
The strong Name of the Trinity,
By invocation of the same,
The Three in One, and One in Three;
Of whom all nature hath creation,
Eternal Father, Spirit, Word:
Praise to the Lord of my salvation,
Salvation is of Christ the Lord.

and just for fun:

When Irish eyes are smiling
  and Irish smiles are big,
When Irish hearts are hopeful
  and the piper plays a jig,
When Irish stew is bubblin'
  and the soda bread is hot,
And Irish tea is steepin'
   in a little Irish pot...
When the room is warm
   with laughter
 and the songs are bright and bold
And there's poetry and magic
  in the stories that are told...
Isn't it a blessing?
Isn't it just grand
  to know a little part of you
     belongs to Ireland?

 It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed,

because His compassions fail not,

They are new every morning:

Great is Thy faithfulness.
