Give Me Strength
It is a sin to hurt someone's feelings
It is a sin to speak badly of your fellow
even if what you say is true
It is a sin to gossip, to slander, to bear tales
How can I steer clear of sin's snares
I who am weak, who is ensconced
in sin's welcoming arms
O, God, give me strength
to speak well of others
that they may speak well of me
to judge not, lest I be judged
