Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always to your back,
May the sunshine warm upon your face;
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again,
May God hold you
in the palm of His hand.

Forever in our hearts, always in our memories,
A silent thought, a quiet prayer,
We hold you close because you’re always there.
