God’ Blessings be Yours

Tuesday, September 16

Celtic cross, Iona Abbey

God’s blessings be yours,

And well may it befall you;

Christ’s blessings be yours

And well be you entreated;

The Spirit’s blessing be yours,

And well spend you your lives;

Each day that you rise up,

Each night that you lie down.

 

Celtic Blessing from Carmina Gadelica compiled by Alexander Carmichael
