Prayer for all that I picked up somewhere

 

The Lord is my Pace-setter

 

The Lord is my Pace-setter

I shall not rush;

He makes me stop and rest for quiet intervals.

He provides me with images of stillness,

Which restore my serenity.

He leads me in ways of efficiency

Through calmness of mind,

And his guidance is peace.

Even though I have a great many things to accomplish each day,

I will not fret,

For his presence is here;

His timelessness, his all-importance,

Will keep me in balance.

He prepares refreshment and renewal

In the midst of my activity,

By anointing my mind with his oils of tranquility.

My cup of joyous energy overflows;

Surely harmony and effectiveness

Shall be the fruits of my hours,

For I shall walk in the pace of my Lord,

And dwell in his house forever
