Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand,
Upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.

My Father, I pray that I may be just and be given to kindness. May I be conscious of my virtues, and use them to overcome my faults. May I hear clearly thy call that I may be sure of the way as I lead others to duty and happiness. Amen.
