Whistleworks Lyr Req: Irish Blessing (from Roma Downey) (21) Looking for a hymn title.... 08 Sep 01


Dear Friends,

On the way to Ireland a couple weeks ago, I listened to some Phil Coulter tracks. One of these featured that "Touched by an Angel" woman, Roma Downey. The title of the track was "An Irish Blessing". Here comes the difficult part since I cannot hum this to you... Behind Ms. Downey's reading was no doubt Aoife Ni Fearraigh, one of the BEST voices that has ever come from Ireland in my opinion. She was singing this hymn and I think that the language is Gaelic. One word that kept repeating was, and I'll have to spell it phonetically, is "gentrocader" or something to that effect. If anyone would recognize this, then my next step is to get the music because like Aoife's voice, that tune was just plain beautiful.

Thanks in advance for any help that you could give me.

Bob Pegritz
