May all blessings be yours;
May all gods protect you.

About Blessings
Graham Patterson’s Blessings is a contemporary sacred chant for SATB choir. The English text draws inspiration from Buddhist principles, offering a universal message of well-being and protection. It unfolds in a series of invocations, each segment seeking blessings, divine protection, and happiness through the power of the Buddhas, Dharmas, and Sangha. The SATB voicing allows for rich harmonies, supporting the gentle, uplifting nature of the text. This piece offers a serene and contemplative musical setting, ideal for moments of reflection or quiet devotion, conveying a profound sense of peace and universal interconnectedness.
