"Knight's Prayer"
I asked God for Strength, that I may achieve.
I was made weak, that
I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health, that
I might do great things.
I was given infirmity, that
I might do better things.
I asked for riches, that
I might be happy.
I was given poverty, that
I might be wise.
I asked for power, that
I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness, that
I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things, that
I might enjoy life.
I was given life, that
I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I asked for, but
everything I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered
I am among all men, most richly blessed.
