Probe me, Lord, know my heart;
test me, know my thoughts.
Help me root out and resist the evil within me;
lead me along Your way.
I will trust You, Lord, and know that,
whatever my situation, You will never leave me.
If I am sick, may my sickness serve You;
if confused, may my confusion serve You.
If I feel lost, may I trust in You even more;
if I turn away from You, help me repent.
Let me never leave your loving side.
- A Columban Missionary
