When I stumble and fall, when I fail to forgive,
When I give way to anger, wash me clean.
Free me from mistrust, from bigotry and hatred.
Free me from resentments...
Lord, have mercy on me.
When I fail to welcome, when my words are a lie.
When my heart is prideful and cold, wash me clean.
When tempted and weak, when sinful and selfish.
Free me from the darkness of my shame.
Lord, have mercy on me.
Give me purity of heart,and a reverence for
All that lives; send me simplicity in all the
Ways of Your world. Wash me and clean me.
Teach me to listen to Your word. Open my
Ears to cries for compassion and help me to
Be an instrument of Your peace.
Lord, have mercy on me.
