Description

An illuminted collection of newly written daily prayers that draws on the rich stream of devotion flowing deep in the Celtic tradition. For centruies, prayers chanted at the rising of the sun and at its setting, at the birth of a child, or the death of a loved one, spoke of God's glory ever-present in creation, in human desires and in physical energies. These original prayers, for each morning and night of the week, are a new expression of that ancient tradition.

Illustrated throughout with art taken from the Lindisfare Gospels.

Would make a lovely gift.
