O aking Ama, iyong dinggin
Mga pagsamo ng Iyong alipin
Nababatid mo, aking pangangailangan
Maawa Kang ipagkaloob
Ang makabubuti sa aking kapakanan.
Maanong ikubli, wag katitigan
Mga pagkakasalang aking nagawa
Nadala ng aking kahinaan
At ng aking kapaligiran.
Ipagpatawad din naman
Ang mga pagkakataong nasumpungang
Pinanghihinaan, nawawalan ng pag-asa
Maanong Iyong ipagkaloob
Matibay na pananampalataya.
Maanong ako'y Iyong hawakan
Lagi na ay Iyong gabayan
Wag itulot na mahila
Ng masamang layaw ng sanlibutan.
Bigyan din ng pusong masunurin,
Matutong wag manangan
Sa natatanaw ng paningin
Manapa ay ipagkatiwala
Ang lahat sa Iyong magagawa.
Amen.

Fear
there are many things in this life
that brings fear to us
fear of the unknown
fear of what was expected to happen
fear of being alone
fear of being tied with someone
fear of being sick
fear of out-living loved-ones
but what does all this show us?
when we entrust ourselves with ourselves,
we can do nothing, we are nothing
and with this fear
we should replace this with faith
faith for what He can do for us
faith that He may not leave or forsake us
and this I pray,
"Lord, take all my fears away
leave in its place, a deep faith in You
a faith that may not waver
a divine fear that I may not wander
and Your light that may forever guide my path.
Amen."
