Rosemary's Blessing: 

May the God of the dawn awaken you
May the God of sunrise stir you up
May the God of morning bless your work
May the God of noon renew your strength
May the God of sunset bring you home
May the God of dusk soothe your soul
May the God of night bring you rest.

    Christ has no body now on earth but yours,
    no hands but yours,
    no feet but yours,
    Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s
    compassion is to look out to the world,
    Yours are the feet with which Christ is to
    go about doing good,
    Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to
    bless all people now.
