Lord,
In contemplation,
May I forget my cares,
So I can lose myself in you,
For you know all my prayers.
Lord,
In contemplation,
May I forget to plead,
So I can lose myself in you,
For you know what I need.

In contemplation,
May I forget each friend,
So I can lose myself in you
As words come to an end.
Lord,
In contemplation,
May I forget each foe,
So I can lose myself in you,
And leave behind all woe.
Lord,
In contemplation,
May I forget to pray,
So I can lose myself in you
And leave life far away.
Lord,
In contemplation,
May I forget all things,
Until, at last, there’s only you,
Lord God, the King of kings.
