Air from County Derry in G Petrie:
The Ancient Music of Ireland (1853)
Howard Arnold Walter

I would be true,
for there are those that trust me.
I would be pure,
for there are those that care.
I would be strong,
for there is much to suffer.
I would be brave,
for there is much to dare.
I would be friend of all,
the foe, the friendless.
I would be giving,
and forget the gift,
I would be humble,
for I know my weakness,
I would look up, laugh, love and live.

The haunting melody of Air from County Derry has become better known as Danny Boy

The Lorica of Saint Patrick
or
The Breastplate of Patrick
or
The Deer's Cry

Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me;
Christ to comfort and restore me;
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
