Deep Peace - Ye Olde Prayers Series (4)

orchidee



Tune: Old Yeavering

('Like a mighty river flowing')

Based on a prayer - source unknown - early Scottish

*****************

Deep peace of running wave to you

May its energies you renew

Deep peace of flowing air to you

May fresh breaths to you ensue

 

Deep peace of the quiet earth to you

As you the creation all view

Deep peace of shining stars to you

Sustain you all the night through

 

Deep peace of the Son of Peace to

You for ever, the best peace true

Wholesome, pure, peace in mind and heart

God fill you in every part
