My Prayer

Make me to know your ways, O Lord;

    teach me your paths.

Lead me in your truth, and teach me,

    for you are the God of my salvation;

    for you I wait all day long.

Turn to me and be gracious to me,

    for I am lonely and afflicted.

Relieve the troubles of my heart,

    and bring me out of my distress.

Consider my affliction and my troubles,

    and forgive all my sins.

May integrity and uprightness preserve me,

    for I wait for you.

O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you

    forever.
