神啊！求你將判斷的權柄賜給王，
      將公義賜給王的兒子。
    他要按公義審判你的民，
      按公平審判你的困苦人。
    大山小山，都要因公義使民得享平安。
    他必爲民中的困苦人伸冤，
      拯救窮乏之輩，壓碎那欺壓人的。
    太陽還存，月亮還在；人要敬畏你直到萬代。 （詩七二：1-5）

Build me a son, O Lord,
who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, brave enough to face himself when he is afraid,

Build me a son,
whose wishes will not take the place of deeds…Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenges. Let him learn to stand in the storm; let him learn compassion for those who fall.

Build me a son,
whose heart is clear, whose goals will be high, a son who will master himself before he seeks to master others; who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.

And after all these things are his, add, I pray,
enough of a sense of humor so that he may always be serious yet never take himeself too seriously…

Then, I, his father will dare to whisper: “I have not lived in vain.”
