- O my God my only God, the author of my being, and my last end. I give thee my heart Praise, honour, and glory be to thee for ever, and ever. Amen.
Written by Joan Stafford from her grandfather Mr. Crowley Ballycullane
O sweet Jesus pardon me all the sins I have committed, through my five senses. I am sorry from my hearth for having offended thee.
Amen.Come holy Ghost send down thy beams'.
Which sweetly flow in silent streams.
From thy bright throne above.
O come thou father of the poor.
O come thou source of all our store.
Come fill our hearths with love.O thou, of comforters the best.
O thou, the souls delightful guest.
The pilgrims sweet relief.
Thou art true rest in toil an sweat.
Refreshment in the exess of heat
And solace in our grief.
Amen.
