Racing with the mountains...

Lately everyone around me has been in a negative mood, mainly due to exams. I sense a call, to make this world palatable while not losing my saltiness, to be in the world but not of the world. How can i benefit the world if i am like the world?

I might be racing with the mountains, but i have the advantage, i can move while the mountains only stay still.

Create in me a clean heart, O God; 
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from thy presence; 
and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; 
and uphold me [with thy]free spirit.
[Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; 
and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, 
O God, thou God of my salvation: 
[and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
O Lord, open thou my lips; 
and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
