Exam Prayer for Students

Lord pour out your Spirit of Wisdom on me

Help me to remain calm

To attend carefully to the questions asked

To think clearly, to remember accurately

and to express myself well.

Grant that I may reflect the best of the work I have done,

and the best of the teaching I have received.

Help me not to become unduly stressed.

Lord I place all my trust in you. Amen
