      Wow!! I come to search this song up thinking of Fr Rooney and I never would have guessed to see this comment appear. God is great! God bless you!! Fr rooney was a great man I knew him when he was my pastor from 1995-2008 and he was still close to me and my family up until the point he died. I just talked to him before he died and would never have guessed that would be the last time I’d talk to him. Until we meet again fr Rooney :((

    May the road rise to meet you,
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face,
    The rains fall soft upon your fields.
    And until we meet again,
    May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
    May God be with you and bless you:
    May you see your children's children.
    May you be poor in misfortune,
    Rich in blessings.
    May you know nothing but happiness
    From this day forward.
    May the road rise up to meet you
    May the wind be always at your back
    May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home
    And may the hand of a friend always be near.
    May green be the grass you walk on,
    May blue be the skies above you,
    May pure be the joys that surround you,
    May true be the hearts that love you.

    Hi to my niece who just moved to Galway, 🇮🇪! Miss you, love...
    Galway, a harbour city on Ireland’s west coast, sits where the River Corrib meets the Atlantic Ocean. The city’s hub is 18th-century Eyre Square, a popular meeting spot surrounded by shops and traditional pubs that often offer live Irish folk music. Nearby, stone-clad cafes, boutiques and art galleries line the winding lanes of the Latin Quarter, which retains portions of the medieval city walls.
