Christ shield me this day:
Christ with me,
Christ before me,
Christ behind me,
Christ in me,
Christ beneath me,
Christ above me,
Christ on my right,
Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down,
Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every person
who thinks of me,
Christ in the eye that sees me,
Christ in the ear that hears me.”

I didn't know that -re breastplate.
I've always loved that prayer. And, good omen that your first date was on St. Joseph's Day.
I always love how people associate Patrick with Ireland and he was totally British....silly really.
