Prayer Before Speaking Poem by borgjie distura

God, our loving and compassionate Lord
Jesus Christ, only begotten, divine Word
And Holy Spirit, inspiration of my words
All lovely and beautiful things
They come from Your supreme Being.

All these come from your goodness
All these manifest your faithfulness
All these show your beauty
All these tell your glory.

As I have this engagement
Touch my mouth every moment
Bless me, guide me, teach me
To be you instrument, let me be.

As I open my mouth dear Father
I pray I’ll be sound and clear
As I impart your message of charity
Let me do it successfully and faithfully.
This I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.
