O Lord, must I fear Your wrath?

Retribution is Yours by right!

May I never dishonour Your Divinity,

My soul seeking to maintain Your love.

Shape my being into earnest kindness,

A reflection of Your perfection.

Grant me the grace of self-control,

That I may not display any anger.

Should I have such an outburst,

Instantly remind me to seek redress,

For such is offensive to You.

Amen.
