Toady we pray St. Patrick's Ancient prayer both in English & Latin. English I arise todayThrough a mighty strength, the invocation of the TrinityThrough belief in the threenessThrough confession of the OnenessTowards the creator. I arise todayThrough the strength of Christ with his baptism,Through the strength of his crucifixion with his burial,Through the strength of his resurrection with his ascensionThrough the strength of his decent for the Judgement of doom. I arise todayThrough the strength of the love of CherubimIn obedience to the Angels,In the service of the Archangels,In hope of resurrection to meet with reward,In prayers of patriarchs,In predictions of prophets,In preaching of Apostles,In faiths of confessors,In innocence of Holy Virgins,In deeds of righteous men. I arise todayThrough the strength of heaven:Light of sunBrilliance of moonSplendor of fireSpeed of lightningSwiftness of wind Depth of seaStability of earthFirmness of rock. I arise todayThrough God’s strength to pilot me:God’s might to uphold me,God’s wisdom to guide meGod’s eye to look before me,God’s ear to hear me,God’s word to speak for me,God’s hand to guard me,God’s way to lie before me,God’s host to secure meagainst snares of devilsagainst temptations of vicesagainst inclinations of natureagainst everyone who shall wish me ill,afar and anear,alone and in a crowd. A summon today all these powers between me and these evilsAgainst every cruel and merciless power that may oppose my body and my soul,Against incantations of false prophets,Against black laws of heathenry,Against false laws of heretics,Against craft of idolatry,Against spells of women and smiths and wizards,Against every knowledge that endangers man’s body and soul. Christ to protect me todayagainst poison, against burning,against drowning, against wounding,so that there may come abundance of reward.Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,Christ on my right, Christ on my leftChrist where I lie, Christ where I sit, Christ where I ariseChrist in the heart of every man who thinks of me,Christ in the mouth of every man who speaks of me,Christ in every eye that sees me,Christ in every ear that hears me. I arise todayThrough a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,Through belief in the Thrones,Through confession of the OnenessTowards the Creator. Salvation is of the LordSalvation is of the LordSalvation is of ChristMay thy salvation, O Lord, be ever with us. Latin Ad Temoriam hodia potentiam praepollentem invoco Trinitatis,Credo in Trinitatem sub unitate numinis elementorum. Apud Temoriam hodie virtutem nativitatis Christi cum ea ejus baptismi,Virtutem crucifixionis cum ea ejus sepulturae,Virtutem resurrectionis cum ea ascensionis,Virtutem adventus ad judicium aeternum. Apud Temoriam hodie virtutem amoris Seraphim in obsequio angelorum,In spe resurrectionis ad adipiscendum praemium.In orationibus nobilium Patrum,In praedictionibus prophetarum,In praedicationibus apostolorum,In fide confessorum,In castitate sanctarum virginum,In actis justorum virorum. Apud Temoriam hodie potentiam coeli,Lucem solis,Candorem nivis,Vim ignis,Rapiditatem fulguris,Velocitatem venti,Profunditatem maris,Stabilitatem terrae,Duritiam petrarum. Ad Temoriam hodie potentia Dei me dirigat,Potestas Dei me conservet,Sapientia Dei me edoceat,Oculus Dei mihi provideat,Auris Dei me exaudiat,Verbum Dei me disertum faciat,Manus Dei me protegat,Via Dei mihi patefiat,Scutum Dei me protegat,Exercitus Dei me defendat,Contra insidias daemonum,Contra illecebras vitiorum,Contra inclinationes animi,Contra omnem hominem qui meditetur injuriam mihi,Procul et prope,Cum paucis et cum multis. Posui circa me sane omnes potentias hasContra omnem potentiam hostilem saevamExcogitatam meo corpori et meae animae;Contra incantamenta pseudo-vatum,Contra nigras leges gentilitatis,Contra pseudo-leges haereseos,Contra dolum idololatriae,Contra incantamenta mulierum,Et
