JOURNEY PRAYERS 195
THE PILGRIMS' AIDING
From Mary MacDonald, crofter, Staoinibrig, South Uist,
who possessed the second sight
God be with thee in every pass,
Jesus be with thee on every hill,
Spirit be with thee on every stream,
Headland and ridge and lawn ;
Each sea and land, each moor and meadow,
Each lying down, each rising up.
In the trough of the waves, on the crest of the billows.
Each step of the journey thou goest.
