1
O God, who loves Your devotees,
look with compassion upon me, Your beloved.
Give me strength
to overcome the power of this world
and live a life that honors You.

2
The prince of darkness
continually sends his schemes against me
in many different ways.
My dear Lord, help me remember Your will
and keep my thoughts focused on You.

3
Guard my life carefully
so that no one may find my way of life worthless or dishonorable.
Let what is truly valuable within me—
good and godly character—
shine brightly.

4
Help me remember every day
that Christ may appear again very soon.
Let me eagerly and faithfully wait for Him
and live my life
with carefulness, watchfulness, and devotion.
