An Irish Blessing
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 in winter;
of the quiet beauty of creation in 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.
I made this page for my mums birthday,
she would have been 54 years young on the 14th of November 2002,
I know she would have loved this page and its blessing,
so as a birthday present this is for you mum.

May you rest in the arms of the angels and wear your wings with pride.
