LISTEN
(length 3:55)
May the Blessing of Light be upon you
Light on the outside, light on the inside.
With God's sunlight shining on you,
May your heart glow with warmth,
like a turf fire that welcomes friends and strangers alike.
May the Light of the Lord shine from your eyes,
Like a candle in the window,
Welcoming the weary traveler.
May the blessing of God's soft rain be on you,
Falling gently on your head
Refreshing your soul with the sweetness of little flowers newly blooming
May the strength of the winds of heaven bless you
Carrying the rain to wash your spirit clean
Sparkling after in the sunlight.
May the blessing of God's earth be on you
And as you walk the roads
May you always have a kind word for those you meet.
May you understand the strength and power of God in a
thunderstorm and winter
and the quiet beauty of creation
and the calm of a summer sunset
And may you come to realize
that insignificant as you may seem in this great universe
you ARE an important part of God's plan.
May he watch over you
and keep you safe from harm.

May you find your pot of gold, eat too much corned beef and cabbage, enjoy your family and friends, and laugh so hard your sides ache and your eyes tear up. Wishing you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day.
IRISH PROUD!
