Guidance

"O thou who pervadest the heights,
imprint on us Thy gracious blessing,
Carry us over the surface of the sea,
Carry us safely to a haven of peace...

I myself will sit down at the helm,
It is God's own Son who will give us guidance,
As He gave to Columba the mild
What time he set stay to sails."

- Carmina Gaeldica

  2. Many of the prayers preserved in the Carmina Gaedelica (Songs of the Gael) are actually very short folk prayers.
