Moses came down the
mountain
and saw his people
worshiping the calf;
his anger burned hot;
and he threw the tablets
that contained your

Jesus saw a crowd, and
he went up a mountain
and there sat down to
teach the people
how to receive your
blessing.
God, you know I am
not a righteous man like Moses;
and you know that when
my anger burns hot
how seldom it does

Help me attend to the
quiet words of Jesus;
help me devote myself
to prayer; keep me alert
to rejoice in you and
give thanks to your holy name.
