Lenten Prayer

Slow me down, Lord.

Slow me down!

Ease my pounding heart;

Quiet my racing mind;

Soothe my frayed nerves;

Relax my tired muscles.

Teach me the art of taking minute vacations,

Of keeping in touch with myself,

Of listening to the voice of God

and drawing from it new light,

new strength, and new courage.

Slow me down Lord.

Slow me down!
