The Source of Strength
Let me be strong to not do wrong
From spite or inattention
Keep me above the lack of love,
Indifference or of hate.
Give me the strength to wait at length
Nor feel the Tempter's tension.
Let patience be confirmed in me
Let haste be set aside.
Let me recall that , after all
I really have no strength at all
But that of of His afford,
My strength is in the joy of the Lord.

And learning
Nobody can steal
Yet it

Give me strength to overcome sadness and pain.
