1) Let not my ego bloat
Oh God, by worldly bubbles
On seas of troubles ;
Let me undisturbed float.
2) Let not self-debasing envy sting
My heart's pure spring ;
Let me joys ring
For others and Thy name sing.
3) Let not selfish strain
Give my bosom pain ;
All these pursuits vain
Let peace and patience reign.
4) Let me be not unkind
And bear in my mind
Thy mighty munificence great
Thy all-pervading universal state.
5) Let not my tongue offend
Others with a critical end
Let love and peace effuse
Let me, if Thee please, live for other's use.
6) In testing times, let me not stray
From Thy commands and righteous way
Thy name, my help-- Thy feet
My sole refuge--Thy gaze, my comfort sweet.
