Power of Prayer

   I've been looking around for some basic prayers or chants to start out with during my daily devotions and discovered these on the Tairis website. (Told you, it's a great site!) There's a list of about five or six of them but the author suggests just doing the prayer for rest and rising to start out with.

Daily Practices - Prayers

   Here are my variations that I will begin to use daily:

   Rising Prayer

   Bless to me

   each thing I see

Bless to me

each sound I hear

Bless to me

each scent I smell

Bless to me

each taste I take

Bless to me

each note to my song

each ray that guides my way

each thing I pursue

each lure that tempts my will

the zeal that seeks my soul

the three that seek my heart.

Resting Prayer

Bless this, my dwelling

and each who rests herein this night

Bless my dear ones

in every place they may sleep

In the night that is tonight

and every single night

In the day that is today

and every single day.

   There not too much different; I just changed a few words around to suit my liking. What are a few of yours?
