“O Great Spirit of my fathers, this is my prayer.
Help me to feel Thine urge and Thy message.
Help me to be just even to those who hate me; and at all times help me to be kind.
If mine enemy is weak and faltering, help me to the good thought that I forgive him.
If he surrender, move me to help him as a weak and needy brother.”
“O Great Spirit of my fathers, help me to wholly void my heart of fear.
And above all things, O God of my people and of my soul, help me to be a man.”
“O God, show me the way of wisdom, and give me strength to follow it without fear.”
“O Great Spirit, this is my prayer! Grant that fear may never enter into my heart to be the guide of my feet.”
“O Great Spirit, make me sufficient to mine own occasions.”
“Help me to win, if win I may, but—and this especially, O Great Spirit—if it be not ordained that I may win, make me at least a good loser.”
