Desires

May I speak each day according to Thy justice, Each day may I show Thy chastening, O God; May I speak each day according to Thy wisdom, Each day and night may I be at peace with Thee. Each day may I count the causes of Thy mercy, May I each day give heed to Thy laws; Each day may I compose to Thee a song, May I harp each day Thy praise, O God. May I each day give love to Thee, Jesu, Each night may I do the same; Each day and night, dark and light, May I laud Thy goodness to me, O God.
