Celtic benediction

For the might of your wind on the waters
for the swelling of the open sea
and the rushing of crested waves
thanks be to you, O God.

For the strength of desire in my body
for the sap of life that flows
and the yearnings for birth and abundance
thanks be to you.

Restore me in the image of your love this day
that the longings of my heart may be true.
Restore me in the image of your love this day
that my passions for life may be full.
