The morning bright
With rosy light
Has woken me from sleep;
Father, I own
Your love alone
Your little one does keep.
All through the day,
I humbly pray,
Be my Guard and Guide;
My sins forgive
And let me live,
Jesus, near Your side.
Amen.

An Irish Prayer
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the skies above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hearts that love you.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

A Prayer for Friendship
A Prayer for Friendship
Help me, O God, to be
A good and true friend.
To be always loyal, and
Never to let my friends down;
Never to talk about them behind
Their backs in a way in which I
Would not do before their faces;
Never to betray a confidence or
Talk about the things about which
I ought to be silent;
Always to be ready to share
Everything I have;
To be as true to my friends
As I would wish them to be to me.
This I ask for the sake of
You who are the greatest and the truest of all friends,
For your love’s sake,
Amen.
