Prayer of Protection and Unity
Celtic Daily Prayer for Protection
(from Saint Patrick - Apostle to Ireland, 390 - 460 AD)

"Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me. Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger" |

Prayer of Unity
"Loving God: draw us together and make us one
As we sing with the whole of creation in praise of you,
As a new day unfolds its infinite potential.
Help us never to lose our sense of wonder, as we see, hear, taste
And touch the beauty of this world in all its diversity.
Inspire us with the energy to put right all that is bruised and broken:
Show us that we are all linked in one humanity.
Open our lips that we may sing with Joy the Good News of your
Love for everyone.
Open our hands that we may reach out to one another, to touch and
To connect.
Open our ears that we may listen to the voices of those who are unheard.
Open our eyes that we may recognise Christ in the faces of people shunned
and marginalized.
Open our minds that we may search more honestly for the truth.
Open out hearts that we may live out your purpose -
All creation reconciled. Amen"
