howard simon - A Prayer for Excellence

Lord grant me
The assurance of Abraham
The meekness of Moses
The strength of Samson
The resilience of Ruth
The devotion of David
The shrewdness of Solomon
The empowerment of Elijah
The effectiveness of Esther
The diligence of Daniel
The passion of Peter
The persistence of Paul
And the mind of the Messiah
