You who are over us,
You who are one of us,
You who are also within us,
May all see you in me also,
May I prepare the way for you,
May I thank you for all that shall fall to my lot,
May I also not forget the needs of others...
Give me a pure heart - that I may see you,
A humble heart - that I may hear you,
A heart of love - that I may serve you,
A heart of faith - that I may abide in you.
--Dag Hammarskjold, 1905-1961
