Gloating

Whenever everything is going my way just as I decree Humble me Lord to pray and take the gloat out of me When my enemies are defeated through wisdom shown So may Your Way be greeted and Your Holy Name known When the match has be won and no matter how heated May I think of Your Holy Son and the way He was treated Lord don't allow me to gloat but continue down Your road With just a little note to self as to how much is really owed For in the winning of such a prize or taking home that award Please always keep open my eyes to Your gentle touch oh Lord That the equation not contain pride nor any ego to try to defend For that it's is You at my side is the only thing to which I depend As surely Lord I know it is not I but the work of Your Own Hand For surely as hard as I may try only through You can I understand So I give it all up to You Lord in the Name of Your Sacred Heart As so You should be adored, oh Jesus, from me never depart Proverbs 29:23 A man's pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.
