O Lord, I pray
That for this day
I may not swerve
By foot or hand
From Thy command
Not to be served, but to serve.
This, too, I pray,
That from this day
No love of ease
Nor pride prevent
My good intent
Not to be pleased, but to please.
And if I may
I'd have this day
Strength from above
To set my heart
In heavenly art
Not to be loved, but to love.
