This morning's prayer is my expansion of an ancient Celtic prayer.
God to hold me,
God to enfold me,
God to surround me,
God to enfold me,
God to surround me,
God to embrace me...
God in my thoughts,
God in my speech,
God in my judgment,
God in my choices,
God in my choices,
God in my wonder,
God in my dreams...
God in my being,
God in my doing,
God in my coming,
God in my coming,
God in my going,
God in my work,
God in my rest,
God in my watching,
God in my watching,
God in my waiting,
God in my giving,
God in my taking,
God in my waking,
God in my sleeping...
God in my troubles,
God in my calm,
God in my hurt,
God in my healing,
God in my laughter,
God in my tears,
God in my sorrows,
God in my joys...
God in my faith,
God in my hope,
God in my love,
God in my life,
God in my mind,
God in my life,
God in my mind,
God in my soul,
God in my heart of hearts...
Dwell in me, Lord, this day, I pray:
God in my heart of hearts...
Dwell in me, Lord, this day, I pray:
in all I do,
every breath I take,
every step I take...
Remain in me, Lord, this day, I pray
Remain in me, Lord, this day, I pray
may nothing I do
ever lead me astray
or draw me away from your love...
Live in me, Lord, this day, I pray
make your home in my heart
and deep in my soul,
ever lead me astray
or draw me away from your love...
Live in me, Lord, this day, I pray
make your home in my heart
and deep in my soul,
with the peace only you can give...
Amen.
