    The Roman Catholic bishop singing next to two Anglican clergy (bishop and vicar) of the Church of Ireland and a mixed congregation of schools and choirs and the faces of the Irish singing a wonderful traditional Irish Hymn beloved by both traditions. This is the here and now. These young people are the future of the Emerald Isle. Transcending old hatreds and divisions and looking to a brighter future. The whole service can be viewed on the Drumcliffe Church channel.

      A Beautiful observation. Pastor John Yeats and the Roman Catholic priest were also great friends. pastor Yeats served in St Columba's Church from 1812 to 1846.

    1 Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
    naught be all else to me, save that thou art.
    Thou my best thought in the day and the night,
    waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.
    2 Be thou my wisdom, be thou my true word;
    I ever with thee, and thou with me, Lord.
    Thou my great Father, and I thy true son,
    thou in me dwelling and I with thee one.
    3 Be thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight.
    Be thou my armour, and be thou my might,
    thou my soul’s shelter, and thou my high tow’r.
    Raise thou me heav’nward, O Pow’r of my pow’r.
    4 Riches I heed not, nor vain empty praise;
    thou mine inheritance, now and always.
    Thou and thou only, the first in my heart,
    High King of heaven, my treasure thou art.
    5 High King of heaven, when the battle is done
    grant heaven's joy to me, O bright heav’n’s Sun!
    Christ of my heart, whatever befall,
    still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
    Blessings in Christ

    A beautiful hymn. Shame that the organ seems like a pathetic wheeze. They could've at least hired a decent digital sampled instrument given the V.IPs present!
