Patrick’s Prayer

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! I don’t know if you wore green and celebrated, but I do hope you know the type of man that Patrick was and the great sacrifice he made for the sake of the Gospel. He was a true missionary in every sense of the word! Here is an excerpt, telling in a nutshell, the amazing story that surrounds this day!

Saint Patrick, who lived during the fifth century, is the patron saint of Ireland and its national apostle. Born in Roman Britain, he was kidnapped and brought to Ireland as a slave at the age of 16. He later escaped, but returned to Ireland and was credited with bringing Christianity to its people. www.history.com/topics/st-patricks-day/history-of-st-patricks-day

Here is a beautiful, insightful prayer of Saint Patrick for you to read and enjoy!

“… I arise today, through God’s strength to pilot me,

God’s might to uphold me,

God’s wisdom to guide me,

God’s eye to look before me,

God’s ear to hear me,

God’s word to speak for me,

God’s hand to guard me,

God’s shield to protect me,

God’s host to save me

From snares of devils,

From temptation of vices,

From everyone who shall wish me ill,

afar and near.

Christ with me,

Christ before me,

Christ behind me,

Christ in me,

Christ beneath me,

Christ above me,

Christ on my right,

Christ on my left,

Christ when I lie down,

Christ when I sit down,

Christ when I arise,

Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,

Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,

Christ in every eye that sees me,

Christ in every ear that hears me.

I arise today

Through a mighty strength,

the invocation of the Trinity,

Through belief in the Threeness,

Through confession of the Oneness

of the Creator of creation.”
