Will You Receive The Benediction?

Here is An Irish Blessing
     by Phil Coulter
     
     May the blessing of light be upon you
     Light on the outside and 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  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 in winter, 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.
     God bless you all.
​
     May God's blessings be upon you and your family.
