Oh Lord,
Give me patience,
Forgiveness,
Understanding,
Gentleness,
Compassion,
And­ kindness,
Towards myself and others,
And ever lasting gratitude
For your perseverance
And tenacity
In never giving up on me,
And for your unconditional love
For all of me,
Warts and all,
Eternally yours
Thank you.
Amen
