Psalm 90:12-17



Teach us the shortness of life, that we may grow in wisdom.
Oh Lord, come back to us. How long will You delay?
Take pity on Your servants.
Satisfy us each morning with Your unfailing love, 
so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.
Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery.
Replace the evil years with good.
Let us, Your servants, see You work again...
And may the Lord our God, show us His approval and make our efforts successful.
Yes, make our efforts successful.
-Psalm 90:12-17-
