O Lord and Master of my life, a spirit of idleness, curiosity, ambition, and idle talk give me not.
But a spirit of chastity, humility, patience and love, bestow upon me Thy servant.
Yea, O Lord King, grant me to see mine own failings and not to condemn my brother or sister, for blessed art Thou unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Lenten prayer of St. Ephrem the Syrian
