Prayer for the morning after the Gonzalez Confirmation Hearing

God be with us
On this Thy day,
Amen.
God be with us
On this Thy night,
Amen.
To us and with us,
On this Thy day,
Amen.
To us and with us,
On this Thy night,
Amen.
It is clear to be seen of us,
Since we came into the world,
That we have deserved Thy wrath,
Amen.
O Thine own wrath,
Thou God of all,
Amen.
Grant us forgiveness,
Amen.
Grant us forgiveness,

Amen.
Grant to us Thine own forgiveness,
Thou merciful God of all,
Amen.
Anything that is evil to us,
Or that may witness against us
Where we shall longest be,
Illume it to us,
Obscure it to us,
Banish it from us,
Root it out of our hearts,
Ever, evermore, everlastingly.
Ever, evermore, everlastingly.
Amen.



from the Carmina Gadelica
