As we prepare to celebrate St Patrick's Day, this song recalls the holiday's namesake's love for Christ and his recognition of God's closeness. The poem which I put to music is reported to have been engraved on Patrick's shield or breastplate. I hope its words will encourage you.
St Patrick's Song
Verse 1:
Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.
Verse 2:
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
