May my life one day

match the words i say.

May i someday be

altogether lovely.

May i do

what i say i will do

and stop

resisting You.

You, oh Lord, are my strength, my peace. 

To You oh Lord, I fall on my knees

and i cry with all that is in me - 

You're my reality, not what i see.

Let my words create

as did Yours that day,

When You first showed Your might,

when You said "let there be light"

May i become

as my Holy One

a faithful,  obedient son - 

May i do all i say

not say what i don't do.

May i become

an altogether pleasing son

                                                                 for You
