    These words, this prayer and song, were relevant when it was written, is relevant today and will be relevant 100s of years from now. And it will always bring me to tears.

    I have heard Rita sing this in Bucharest and in St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, but this Powerscourt version is my favourite recording of the piece. Profound truth sung beautifully! I heard this afternoon that an Irish friend is in hospital and this was the obvious link to send him!

    Lyrics:
    I arise today through the strength of heaven
    Light of sun, radiance of moon
    Splendor of fire, speed of lightning
    Swiftness of wind, depth of the sea
    Stability of earth, firmness of rock
    I arise today through God's strength to pilot me
    God's eye to look before me
    God's wisdom to guide me
    God's way to lie before me
    God's shield to protect me
    From all who shall wish me ill
    Afar and a-near
    Alone and in a multitude
    Against every cruel, merciless power
    That may oppose my body and soul
    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 to shield me
    Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me
    Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me
    I arise today
