Christ
Be With Me Prayer – St. Patrick
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 where I lie,
Christ where I sit, Christ where I
arise,
Christ in the heart
of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth
of every one who speaks to me,
Christ in every eye
that sees me,
Christ in every ear
that hears me.
Salvation is of the
Lord.
Salvation is of the
Christ.
May your salvation,
Lord, be ever with us.

OLD-TIME HYMN
We Gather Together
Author unknown, originally a Dutch
patriotic song of the seventeenth century, translated
into English, Public Domain
1 We gather together to
ask the Lord’s blessing;
He chastens and hastens his will
to make known;
The wicked oppressing now cease
from distressing.
Sing praises to his name; he
forgets not his own.
2 Beside us to guide us, our God
with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining his kingdom
divine;
So from the beginning the fight we
were winning;
Thou, Lord, wast at our side; all
glory be thine!
3 We all do extol thee, thou
leader triumphant,
And pray that thou still our
defender wilt be.
Let thy congregation escape
tribulation;
Thy name be ever praised! O Lord,
make us free!
