God, teach me to be patient,
teach me to go slow,
Teach me how to wait on You
when my way I do not know.
Teach me sweet forbearance
when things do not go right
so I remain unruffled
when others grow uptight.
Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart
so I might hear the answer
You are trying to impart.
Teach me to let go, dear God,
and pray undisturbed
until my heart is filled with inner peace
and I learn to know your will.
Amen.
