Lord Jesus Christ,
      most gentle example,
      most perfect model,
      most patient guide
      faultless standard of faithfulness,
Grant that I may so know you,
      so love you,
      so walk in your steps,
      that you also walk in mine,
Compassionate Master;
Patient long-suffering Lord,
      Forgive my sins,
      cover my faults,
      cleanse my heart,
      plant your humility,
      pull up the weeds of pride,
      root out vengeance,
      cultivate your love in me.
Because you are my light-
      shine on me.
Because you are my life-
      live in me.
Because you are my joy-
      rejoice in me.
Because I am your dwelling place-
      take possession of me.
Because I am your instrument-
      make me holy and ready for your use.
Rabbi and Master,
Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior,
      Mold me and teach me
      that I may be your disciple.
      Serving you now and always in the world you died to save,
      looking forward to the new creation that will dawn at your return.
      Amen.
