Morning Prayer
May my passion not be misplaced, directed poorly
toward things not intended by You.
What a waste of zeal,
to spend my heart and hours after a power
you did not appoint,
for a cause you did not lead!
So lead on, O King eternal,
and may all of what I am
be spent in service of all of who You are.
