Dear Lord, 

May Your calm defeat the raging seas that is my rushing blood, my torrent thoughts. 

May Your solemnity infiltrate the twisting of want and bending of understanding. May Your strength carve out a place for me to rest–Your presence for me to boast in. An effusion I long to reside in. And where You are there I will live since You are where I insist on being.

And that my sight is on You, by You and solely for You.

Dear Lord,

May Your calm defeat the raging seas that is my rushing blood, my torrent thoughts. 

May your solemnity infiltrate the twisting of want and bending understanding.

May Your strength carve out a place for me to rest—Your presence for me to boast in. An effusion I long to reside in.

And where You are, there I will live since you are where I insist on being. And that my sight is not only on you but by you and solely for you.

May my confidence be of Godly wisdom, and Truth and patience my strength, satiating the holy depths I often flee from, excavating fullness my worries pile upon.

May I receive Your spirit, for there is no lacking, there is completion and unrestricted joy—unrestrained praise.

Amen
