The Student's Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not flunk;
      He keepeth me from lying down when I should be studying.
He leadeth me beside the water cooler for a study break;
      He restores my faith in study guides.
He leads me to better study habits
      For my grades' sake.
Yea, tho' I walk through the valley of borderline grades,
      I will not have a nervous breakdown;
For Thou art with me;
      My prayers and my friends, they comfort me.
Thou givest me the answers in moments of blankness;
Thou anointest my head with understanding,
      My test paper runneth over with questions I recognize.
Surely passing grades and flying colors shall follow me
      All the days of examinations;
And I shall not have to dwell in this university
      Forever!
Amen!
