God, speak to my inner being
Give me the calmness of your spirit
that I may take up the course in life
without running and gasping.
Give me the calmness of your spirit, O Lord,
to be able to cry when life hurts
but without giving up the hope in you.
Give me the calmness of your spirit, O Lord,
that I may not seek to prove what I can
to be affirmed of my own worth.
Deliver me, O Lord,
from the self-seeking nature.
Deliver me, O Lord,
from the stress and hazzles
of surviving and striving.
Speak to my inner being, dear God,
that I may find your peace
and purpose in living
that I may find my worth
as your child
without running the hectic race
to compete for greatness.
