You have given to me a wife.
You watched over her, guided her, protected her.
Four times did You restore her from death,
So that she may be returned to my side as You willed.
You have given to me a Father.
You watched over him, instructed him, and healed him.
From the very depth of hell did You restore his life.
You have given to me a Mother.
You watched over her, graced her, and enlightened her.
From the pit of sorrow did You fulfill her dreams.
You have given to me a Brother.
You watched over him, strengthened him, and honored him.
From the lost wilderness did You find him and return him.
You have given to me a Sister.
You watched over her, opened doors for her, and given life.
From the offering of her life to her children, You offer life to her now.
You have given me friends.
You have watched over them, helped them, restored them.
From the paths of unknown, You have made their spirits known to me.
You have given me the Blood of my grandfathers.
From the beginning of them, was a beginning before.
All the days until Adam have You given to my hands.
Each one before me, gave their life to me this day.
You have given to me the Earth, the Air, the Fires, the Waters.
From long before I was, You were
And in-between You established a place for me to grow and to cherish.
You have given to me Your heart.
From long ago You saw a joy in sharing Your Essence.
This breath of life fills my very body because of Your gifts.
You have given to me blessings,
That it is my eyes see, my ears hear and my mouth may speak,
That a man may share of what he has, in doing so shares what You have given.
You have given to me flesh and bone, and senses and mind,
From long ago You designed that in me,
So in this place of beauty I may thrive and experience Your creations.
You have given to me all that is life upon the earth.
From times before this, You knew I would love all that You have made.
In my own heart is the joy of Your creatures and earthly life.
You have given to me talents and joy.
From before me there was great art and music and song.
There put also in me do I praise the gift most suited for this spirit!
You have given to me Unity.
From the establishment of my life, and even before,
You have set aside a Lover of life that I may share all these blessings with.
Praise always be to what has been given.
Praise always be to what is real, and what is true.
Praise always be to the establishment of these things,
Beautiful, Bountiful, Everlasting.
What is real, has always been real,
What is not real has never been real.
Praise be to the joy of praising.
In knowing and sharing that which is real,
Therefore is made real to every sense.
Let our days be always filled with Life!
And our nights be filled with Awe.
May our expressions be filled with Bliss
And our concert be made in Harmony.
May I always walk in the way
That is true everlasting.
