An Irish Blessing: Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Even though we don't celebrate it here in the Philippines, this traditional Irish blessing has a very special meaning for me. When I was on tour around USA and Europe with my college choir, we would sing this blessing everytime before we leave a tour stop. We usually stayed with locals at every stop, sharing wonderful moments and memories during our short stay. Every place that we left was a sad goodbye to the friends we made, sometimes it was goodbye for good. We often sang this around hugs and tearful goodbyes, CLICK HERE AND PLAY THE SONG >>> An Irish Blessing by the UP Concert Chorus May the road rise to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sunshine warm upon your face The rain fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again Until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of hand...
