An Irish Blessing Songtext
von Roma Downey

May the Blessing of Light be upon you
Light on the outside, light on the inside.

With Gods 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 Gods 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 Gods 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 and winter
And 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 Gods plan.

May he watch over you
And keep you safe from harm.
