"O Bless Myself Entire"

"Give us, O God, the needs of the body,
Give us, O God, the needs of the soul."

***

"Bless to me, O God,
My soul and my body;

Bless to me, O God,
My belief and my condition

Bless to me, O God,
My heart and my speech,
And bless to me, O God,
The handling of my hand."

(Celtic prayers quoted in Seeking God by Esther de Waal, p. 88)
