Kyrie

Today is the last day of the walk, and not one of the longest: Alfriston to Eastbourne by way of Beachy Head, within sight of the sea most of the way. I'll be joining Stella for the last few miles from Birling Gap.

David Adam offers these Kyries

When our days are at their longest
When our life is at its strongest
Kyrie eleison    Lord, have mercy

At the turning of each tide
On life's ocean, deep and wide
Kyrie eleison    Lord, have mercy

At the ending of the way
At the closing of the day
Kyrie eleison    Lord, have mercy
(from Sixfold Kyries, Tides and Seasons)

Help us, Lord
To live in your light
To act in your might
To think in your wisdom
To walk in your kingdom
To abide in your love
Your presence to prove
