Lenten Prayer

O Lord and Master of my life!

Take from me the spirit of sloth, faint-heartedness, lust of power and idle talk.

But give me rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience and love to thy servant.

Yea, O Lord and King!

Grant me to see my own errors and not to judge my brother; for thou

art blessed unto ages of ages. Amen. - St. Ephrem the Syrian
