Prayer for God's Protection
As you arise today, may the strength of God pilot you,
the power of God uphold you, the wisdom of God guide you.
May the eye of God look before you, the ear of God hear you,
the Word of God speak for you.
May the hand of God protect you, the way of God lie before you,
the shield of God defend you, the host of God save you.
May Christ shield you today.
Christ with you, Christ before you, Christ behind you,
Christ in you, Christ beneath you, Christ above you,
Christ on your right, Christ on your left,
Christ when you lay down, Christ when you sit,
Christ when you stand, Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of you,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of you,
Christ in every eye that sees you, Christ in every ear that hears you.
