Prayer of the Voyageur
Help me Lord to leave my hurried life behind,
Help me now the quiet life within thy templed trees and lakes to find,
Give me eyes to see each task upon the trail,
Give me faith to know, Thine eyes will never fail,
Grant me patience when the portage paths seem long,
Grant me grace to share with friends in word and song
Plant clean wings upon my feet which now with heavy shoes are shod,
Silence me O Christ, I would be still and know that Thou art God. Amen.
