A PRAYER OF ST PATRICK

GOD OF ALL

Our God is the God of all

The God of heaven and earth,

Of the sea and of the rivers;

The God of the sun and of the moon and of all the stars;

The God of the lofty mountains

and of the lowly valleys.

He has his dwelling around heaven and earth,

and sea, and all that in them is.

He inspires all,

He gives life to all,

He dominates all,

He supports all.

He lights the light of the sun,

He furnishes the light of the night,

He has made springs in dry land...

He is the God of heaven and earth,

of sea and rivers,

of sun, moon and stars,

of the lofty mountain and the lowly valley,

the God above heaven,

and in heaven,

and under heaven.

(A Prayer of St Patrick)
