When someone betrays me or slanders my name
Or gossips and spreads lies again and again
Teach me to be kind and to pray for that one
That You will forgive her for all she has done
When someone reviles me or spits in my face
Insults or torments me, Lord give me the grace
To bless and forgive and to do what is right
To respond out of love, not react out of spite
When I am threatened or sworn at or hurt
Or hated, abused, let me trust in Your Word
Let your love fill my heart and Your grace flood my being
Let Your light shine through me and Your glory be seen
