Prayer
A Driver's Prayer — St. Christopher
Dear Lord, before I take my
place today behind the wheel,
please let me come with humble
heart before Thy throne to kneel
and pray that I am fit to drive
each busy thoroughfare, and
that I keep a watchful eye, lest
some small child be there.
And keep me thinking
constantly about the Golden
Rule, when driving past the
playground zones or by some
busy school. Then when I stop to
give someone his right to cross
the street, let me my brother's
keeper be and spare a life that's
sweet.
Please make me feel this car I
drive You gave me to enjoy, and
that its purpose is to serve
mankind not to destroy.
Amen.
