A Gaelic Blessing (Deep Peace)

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you.
Deep peace of Christ,
of Christ the light of the world, to you.
Deep peace of Christ to you.

May the road be free before you,
may the wind be at your back,
may the sun shine warm upon your face,
and the rain fall softly on your fields.
And until we meet again,
may God hold you gently in the hollow of His hand.
