There are many wonderful and insightful prayers that come to us from the Celtic tradition. Here is one entitled: A Celtic Night Prayer (written by Beth Maxwell Boyle).
"Creator God who upholds me,
Send your peace to sooth me,
When this world and its troubles,
Press hard down upon me.
Like a fair breeze from the south,
Your words they comfort me.
They make me long each day,
For everlasting justice and peace.
You alone have the wisdom of the ages,
You alone understand my heart.
Please Holy One give me rest and repose,
Give me the peace that only you can grant.
Give me repose this night and every night.
In the name of the Lamb,
The redeemer and the comforter,
Christ our King.
Amen."
Psalm 42:8 - By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life.
Living in Grace
D3LM3
Prayer
r God who upholds me,
nd your peace to sooth me,
When this world and its troubles,
Press hard down upon me.
Like a fair breeze from the south,
Your words they comfort me.
They make me long each day,
For everlasting justice and peace.
You alone have the wisdom of the ages,
You alone understand my heart.
Please Holy One give me rest and repose,
Give me the peace that only you can grant.
Give me repose this night and every night.
In the name of the Lamb,
The redeemer and the comforter,
Christ our King.
Amen
