The Daily Office: Urban Skye

Morning Prayer
Christ, as a light
Illumine and guide me.
Christ, as a shield
Overshadow me.
Christ under me;
Christ over me;
Christ beside me
On my left and my right.

This day be within
And without me,
Lowly and meek,
Yet all-powerful.
Be in the heart of each
To whom I speak;
In the mouth of each
Who speaks to me.

This day be within
And without me,
Lowly and meek,
Yet all-powerful.
Christ as a light;
Christ as a shield;
Christ beside me
on my left and my right.

Mid-day Prayer
May I have
The courage today
To live the life
That I would love,
To postpone my dream
No longer
But do at last
What I came here for
And waste my heart
On fear no more.

To Bless the Space Between Us


Evening Prayer
The Sacred Three
My fortress be
Encircling me
Come and be round
My heart
And my home.
