Lyrics

Prayer of Ephrem

Text by Ephrem the Syrian (4th century)
Music by Daniel Burton

O Lord and Master of my life!
But give to me, your servant, a spirit of humility, a spirit of patience, a spirit of love.
Take from me dullness of spirit, lust for power and idle talk.
Lord God and King! Grant me to see my own faults and not to judge my neighbor.
For you, O Lord and Master of my life, are blessed to the ages of ages.
