A Prayer
(By Berton Braley)

III H, MASTER of the world of men
vUlU And ruler of eternity
w Neither with voice nor flowing pen
Have asked many things Of thee;
have not begged for wealth and fame
With selfish prayers Of little worth,
Nor have I called upon thy name
To smite my enemies to earth.
Yet now to thee I raise my eyes
And lift my voice for thee to hear;
No rich and sordid gift price
No plethora of gold and gear;
Only this single boon pray,
That in a busy world and Wide,
Whether my life be grave or gay,
l may not feel self satisfied
SO, still my final hour is spent
Until my work and play are through
Lord, let me never be content
With what or what do;
Deliver me from SNUG conceit
Which clogs the heart and mind in action
This is the prayer which repeat,
Lord guard me from self satisfaction!,,
