Deer’s Cry Celtic woman lisa Kelly
I arise today
Through the strength of heaven
Light of sun, Radiance of moon
splendor of fire
speed of lightining
swiftness of wind
depth of the sea
stability of earth
firmness of rock
I arise to-day
through God’s strength to pilot me
god’s eyes to look before me
god’s wisdom to guide me
god’s way to lie before me
God’s shield to protect me
From all who shall wish me ill,
Afar and anear,
Alone and in a multitude.
against every cruel
merciless power
that may oppose my body and soul
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 left,
Christ when I lie down,
Christ when I sit down,
Christ when I arise,
Christ to shield me.
Christ in the heart of every one who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of every one who speaks of me.
I arise today……..

tis a beutiful song
This was played at my grandson's blessing ceremony. It was beautiful and very appropriate for the celebration of this gift from God.
This song performed by "Lisa" was played during the mass at St. John's Episcopal in Clearwater, Fl. this past Suday 16th 0f May, 2010.
The words are so purifying, her voice overwhelming.
The church was drawn to silence during the song.
I look at it each morning since when I'm alone on the internet-& just listen.Beautiful
Eve Nethercott-PaynterWe have many CDs by Celtic Woman and play them all the time. We just love their music and DVDs. Lisa Kelly, Chloe Agnew, Orla Fallon, Meav, Hayley, Maivread, and others who have sung with them are all fabulous. Can't get enough of their music. David Downes does a great job.
And if you like this song by Lisa, listen to their rendition of Amazing Grace on the Celtic Woman "Songs from the Heart" CD. It'll put tears in your eyes.
Can someone tell me the name of the album that this song is on please?
Yes, Anne. It's entitled "Lisa", one of the Celtic Women.
Rita Connolly also has an beautiful version of The Deer's Cry. It was Rita's I first heard - it was used at the end of a film I saw, back in the 1980's. It took me many many years to track down a copy of it - The Pilgrim - Shaun Davey.
