For what is done, not to be done again
May the judgement not be too heavy upon us
Teach us to care and not to care
Teach us to sit still.
Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death
Pray for us now and at the hour of our death.
Lord, I am not worthy
Lord, I am not worthy
but speak the word only.
Suffer us not to mock ourselves with falsehood
Teach us to care and not to care
Teach us to sit still
Even among these rocks,
Our peace in His will
And even among these rocks
Let my cry come unto Thee.
--from "The Wasteland" by T.S. Eliot
