  The Hurler’s Prayer

Grant me O Lord a hurler’s skill,
with strength of arm and speed of limb.
Unerring eye for the flying ball,
and courage to match what’eer befall.

May my stroke be steady, my aim be true,
my actions manly and my misses few.
No matter what way the game may go
may I rest in friendship with every foe.

When the final whistle for me has blown,
and I stand at last before God’s judgement throne.
May the great referee when he calls my name
say “You hurled like a man, you played the game”.
