Slow me down today, Lord,
and whisper a word or two (or more)
in the quiet of my mind and heart...
When I'm cursing others or myself,
whisper words of blessing...
When I'm judging others' words and deeds,
whisper words of mercy...
When my voice is still and silent,
whisper words that I might speak...
When I'm saying much too much,
whisper words to keep me quiet...
When I've failed and when I've sinned,
whisper words of pardon...
When I'm facing loss and grief,
whisper words of consolation...
When I'm stuck in my own foolishness,
whisper words of wisdom...
When I'm confounded and confused,
whisper words of counsel...
When I'm caught up in my lies,
whisper words of truth...
When life is just too tough to take,
whisper words of hope...
When my heart is broken, hurt and wounded,
whisper words of healing...
When I'm at war, within / without,
whisper words of peace...
