May the Long Time Sun Shine Upon You
All Love Surround You
And the Pure Light Within You
Guide Your Way On/Home .... Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee;
blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Dios te salve Maria,
llena eres de gracia;
el Señor es contigo,
bendita tu eres entre todas las mujeres
y bendito es el fruto de tu vientre Jesus.
Santa Maria Madre de Dios,
ruega por nosotros pecadores,
ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte. AMEN.

God grant me the serenity to
accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference. AMEN.
