Description
Text from "St. Patrick's Breastplate." SATB and organ. Gentle and beautiful and easy to learn. Wonderful for a prayer response, a communion anthem, or a short anthem anytime -- especially Trinity Sunday! (And, of course, there's St. Patrick's Day...)

Lyrics
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.
