Rosemary's Blessing:    

Lord God, who is endlessly patient

    with our foolish and annoying frailties,

    instill in us patience for our fellow humans. 

Help us to keep our temper cool,

    our nerves calm,

    and our disposition amiable.

 May the sun shine bright on your joyous days

And the rain refresh you through peaceful nights.

May summer show God’s wondrous ways

And prepare you for heaven’s great delights
