Take Me, O Lord

Take me, O Lord,
Take my pride away,
Let it not blind my eyes,
So I can see you 
Through a leaf or a stone.

Shield me, O Lord,
Shield me with your word,
So you would protect my soul,
Let my mouth be closed, 
And my mind open.

Save me, O Lord,
Save me from the judging one,
Not you, Not them, But me,
So I would never criticize 
All that belongs to you.

Love me, O Lord,
Love me as your child,
So everywhere I go,
The world will say: 
Like father like child.
