Kyrie (Lord Have Mercy)



Keep me,above all things,from sin.
Keep me from loving money in which is hatred,
From avarice and ambition that suffocate my life.
Keep me from the deadly works of vanity
and the thankless labor for pride and money
and reputation.
(by Thomas Merton from A Book of Hours).
"For the love of money is the root of all evil"
(first Timothy,chapter six,verse ten)
