A Prayer of Robert Louis Stevenson

robert louis stevenson

We resign into your hands our sleeping bodies, our cold hearths, and open doors.

Give us to awaken with smiles; give us to labor smiling.

As the sun returns in the east, so let our patience be renewed with dawn;

as the sun lightens the world, so let our loving-kindness make bright this house of our habitation.


Amen.


Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
