Dear Lord--
Put your words in my mouth, so that when I speak the words will not testify to myself, but to you and your glorious reign.
Put your thoughts in my mind, so that when I think I will concentrate on your kingdom and your love, rather than my own success and accumulation of worldly goods.
Put your actions in my body, so that as my hands and feet move they will reach out and embrace others in love rather than push away those who might threaten my comfort.
Put your voice in my ear, so that when I listen I may hear the words of the Spirit guiding my life rather than the misguided screams of this world, desperate for attention and wealth.
Put your song in my heart, so that my life may be lived completely devoted to you.
Amen.
