Words:
Be by my side Creator God,
Every step I take,
Be before me Saviour God,
Every step I take,
Be behind me Merciful God,
Every step I take,
Be within me strengthening God,
Every step I take.
Background:
Pilgrimage encompasses two distinct and yet complementary concepts, the physical journey to a spiritually significant place and the journey of the heart and mind as they move nearer to God.
In the first case we make a choice to travel somewhere because we believe that the journey will be beneficial to our spiritual and emotional growth and that being at the destination will bring us closer to God’s blessing and a deeper understanding of our Creator.
The journey of the heart and mind is a different process, we are all on this pilgrimage, not by choice but because we live.
The prayer ‘Be by my side’ was written to be said daily as we travel our own pilgrim journeys and was inspired by
St Patrick’s Breastplate and Ephesians 6:10-17.
