And take a personal inventory
For it would be regrettable
To let my growth become history
When I do something that is wrong
I'll quickly admit it and step back
I will evaluate and become strong
To maintain, I must fill in each crack
I will not let temptation take hold
Denial and complacency are no more
My feelings and thoughts must be told
My change of heart must build and store
I will stay myself and wonder
Am I patient, long suff'ring, and gentle?
That when I perchance make a blunder
Can I be temperate and humble?
I will watch for pride in all of its forms
I will promptly seek for release
I will humbly petition the Lord
That my strength through him might increase
Alma 7: 23
23 And now I would that ye should be humble, and be submissive and gentle; easy to be entreated; full of patience and long-suffering; being temperate in all things; being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times; asking for whatsoever things ye stand in need, both spiritual and temporal; always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive.
Mosiah 4: 30
30 But this much I can tell you, that if ye do not watch yourselves, and your thoughts, and your words, and your deeds, and observe the commandments of God, and continue in the faith of what ye have heard concerning the coming of our Lord, even unto the end of your lives, ye must perish. And now, O man, remember, and perish not.
