Thomas More, the exemplary attorney

Casa Cornelia Law Center
Prayer for Attorneys

Loving God, giver of Life and Law,
grant that I may minister to justice with compassion.
In this pursuit, enable me to strive,
as did your servant Thomas More,
to be able in argument and accurate in analysis,
strict in study and reasoned in conclusion.
Make me candid with clients
and honest with adversaries.
Keep me wary of cleverness
lest I win the point but lose myself.
Help me to treasure gentleness and simplicity.
Sit with me at my desk,
listen with me to each client's tale.
Read with me in the library, stand beside me in court.
Grant me courage, wisdom and counsel.
Keep me kind and cheerful.

Amen
