The following prayer is part of a prayer composed for St. Patrick. It's a striking contrast to how American culture celebrates St. Patrick's Day these days.(but we are observing the Wearing O' the Green around here today!)
Christ with me, Christ before me,
Christ behind me, Christ within me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ at my right, Christ at my left,
Christ in the fort,
Christ in the chariot seat,
Christ in the poop [deck],
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks to me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.
Read the entire prayer at Gina Dalfonzo's post at The Point.
