An iarmailt cho soilleir tana
mar gum biodh am brat-sgàile air a reubadh
’s an Cruthaidhear ’na shuidhe am fianuis a shluaigh
aig a’ bhuntàt ’s a sgadan…

—Ruaraidh MacThòmais, “Leodhas as t-Samhradh”
published in Scottish Religious Poetry: 6th century to the present

standrewpress.hymnsam.co.uk/bo

Leodhas as t-Samhradh Ruaraidh MacThòmais An iarmailt cho soilleir tana mar gum biodh am brat-sgàile air a reubadh ’s an Cruthaidhear ’na shuidhe am fianuis a shluaigh aig a’ bhuntàt ’s a sgadan, gun duine ris an dèan E altachadh. ’S iongantach gu bheil iarmailt air an t-saoghal tha cur cho beag a bhacadh air daoine sealltainn a-steach dha’n an t-sìorruidheachd; chan eil feum air feallsanachd far an dèan thu chùis le do phrosbaig. ------------------ Lewis in Summer Translator: Derick Thomson The atmosphere clear and transparent as though the veil had been rent and the Creator were sitting in full view of His people eating potatoes and herring, with no man to whom He can say grace. Probably there’s no other sky in the world that makes it so easy for people to look in on eternity; you don’t need philosophy where you can make do with binoculars.

                                                    Themes of healing, faith, restoration, and spiritual reflection have long been part of Christian poetry. These subjects continue to provide a framework for exploring emotional experience and personal meaning.

                                                    A discussion examining these themes appears at: jenniferfahie.com/healing-chri
