IRELAND=A PRAYER FOR FAMILIES

 

 

 

 

 

 

DECEMBER 15th, 2012

 

 

IRELAND

 

 

The land

Of the leprechaun

And the green

It’s our favorite country

It’s called Ireland

 

A day

Of green rivers

A day

Of partying and fun

It’s our favorite day

It is called

Saint Patty’s day

 

The land

Where my ancestors

Came from

The land of God and Church

And where our Saint Patrick

Comes from

 

The land

Of the Irish sweepstakes

The land

Of our favorite country

The land of the River

And Lord of the Dance

It is our favorite country

It is called Ireland

 

The land of

The leprechaun

And the green

It is our favorite country

It is called

Ireland

 

It is called

IRELAND

Ps        My grandfather-Patrick J. Murphy was born in the late 1800’s

            On this day-he died in 1961 from colon cancer---I was six and at the time

            Of his death-he was my best friend-it was my first encounter

            With death-I still miss him

 

PRAYER FOR FAMILIES

 

Almighty God and Father,

Help all families to live

As the Holy Family

Jesus, Mary and Joseph,

 

United in respect and love,

Teach us through them

The sanctity of human love,

The value of family life,

And the way to live at peace

With all-That we may share

In YOUR life forever.

Amen.
