Day 12: Christ's Gift to us

Wish 12: Deep Peace

Merry Christmas everbody. Today I wish for you the peace of Christ. The deep peace that comforts you and warms you.

These are the words to A Gaelic Blessing, which was made for choir by John Rutter in 1978. It expresses very well today's wish.

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you;
Moon and stars pour their beaming light on you.
Deep peace of Christ, the light of the world, to you.
Deep peace of Christ to you.
