Cherokee Prayer 1
May the warm winds of heaven
Blow softly upon your house
May the Great Spirit
Bless all who enter there.
May your mocassins
Make happy tracks
In many snows.
And may the Rainbow
Always touch your shoulder.
May the sun
Bring you new energy by day
May the moon
Softly restore you by night
May the rain
Wash away your worries
May the breeze
Blow new strength into your being
May you walk gently through the world
And know its beauty
All the days of your life.
Amen.

May your hands be cleansed that they create beautiful things.
May your feet be cleansed, that they might take you where you most need to be.
May your heart be cleansed, that you might hear its message clearly.
May your throat be cleansed, that you might speak rightly when words are needed.
May your eyes be cleansed, that you might see the signs and wonders of the world.
May this person and space be washed clean by the smoke of these fragrant plants.
And may that same smoke carry our prayers spiraling, to the heavens.
Amen.
