BLESS IRELAND by Donald Matthew Stevens Spirit is the word that comes to mind Bless my dear Ireland For my mum and dads folks came over here Feed the families till we can come home again Here rolling green hills wait for me Bless my dear Ireland Like an emerald awash in northern sea In my heart she is still beckoning, when? And generations have stayed on to help make This America a great land. Irish lads and lassies Offering adopted home a helping hand And as we grow and raise our own Bless my dear Ireland In our hearts she'll always be home I'll fight fiercely for my Erin So raise a glass and here me say In a blessed Irish way To my loves and life and God, to you Always let me live the Irish way ©Donald Matthew Stevens(Used with permission) May there always be work for your hands to do; May your purse always hold a coin or two; May the sun always shine on your windowpane; May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain; May the hand of a friend always be near you; May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
