By Ephrem the SyrianSource: Ephrem the Syrian - Prayer of St. Ephrem (4th century) - Public DomainShort64 words
O Lord and Master of my life, take from me the spirit of sloth, idle curiosity, lust of power, and vain talk. But give rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience, and love to Thy servant. Yea, O Lord and King, grant me to see my own faults and not to judge my brother, for blessed art Thou unto the ages of ages. Amen.
