Of rich and royal hue..

Deep peace

I said farewell to my dear aunt and godmother today at the wee church in Auchterarder where she and my uncle Jim were parish stalwarts for years. It was obvious from the old priest who took the service that he was very fond of them. Her daughter Anne read these beautiful words: 

A Gaelic blessing by John Rutter. 

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 healing light on you.
Deep peace of Christ,
of Christ the light of the world to you.
Deep peace of Christ to you.

Deep peace Auntie Margaret.
