An illustrated collection of 20 short prayers -- traditional and new -- from the distinctive Celtic Christian tradition. The prayers all speak of God's care and protection in the everyday things of life. They ask simply and earnestly for God's blessing: that God would guard us, guide us and do good things for us through all our days. Their combination of determined faith and a deep respect for the natural world has a strong appeal today. Among the 20 prayers are classics attributed to St Patrick, St Columba of Iona, prayers from the great Carmina Gadelica collection, and prayers newly written by Lois Rock in the Celtic style.
