Celtic Prayers - The Weaver's Hand





















The Weaver’s Hand

Where rivers run and pastures grow,
Where Sky meets Earth, with Sea between;
Where sparkling stars dance with the moon,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I see the Weaver’s Hand.

Where mountain rise and valleys yield,
Where trees abound and flowers grow;
Where geese fly high and fish swim deep,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I see the Weaver’s Hand.

Where lightning flashes and thunder roars,
Where silver rain and white snow falls,
Where grey clouds gather and green waves crash,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I see the Weaver’s Hand.

Where galaxies gleam and stars collide,
Where planets whirl and comets rush;
Where gas clouds appear and black holes hide,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I see the Weaver’s Hand.

Where plankton floats and microbes dwell,
Where new cells grow and atoms spin;
Where electrons charge and neutrons emerge,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I see the Weaver’s Hand.

Wherever I go and whatever I do,
However I live and whenever I die;
What lies in the past and what lies ahead,
There will I find the Maker’s Pattern,
There will I clasp the Weaver’s Hand.
