To welcome the new with faith and courage.

To cherish all that has gone before,

To become an example of justice and peace,

Weaver God, accept, please do,

the offering of ourselves, our separate strands,

to be woven in and out, over, under and through.

Grant us eyes to see the whole, of which we are a part,

to see the tapestry you weave,

calling us beyond our aloneness and security,

to be surprised by miracles.

Oh, if we could but perceive

out of parts we weave a whole.

Rise with the road on your journey,

May Brigid bless you, possess you, caress you,

with her ever faithful love.

Rise with the road on your journey,

May Brigid hold you, enfold you, console you,

with her ever faithful love. Amen
