Prayers against pride

[SamanthaAnastasia]

are there any helpful prayers against pride that you’ve found?

I find I am prideful in various ways. Even my low self esteem in some parts can be prideful (no one is worse than me).

because we are heading into Lent, I’m thinking I should focus on that? And not shopping for pleasure (I shop too much).

Orthodox only please!

Lenten Prayer of St. Ephrem

O Lord and Master of my life, take from me the spirit of sloth, despair, lust of power, and idle talk.

But give rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience, and love to Thy servant.

Yea, O Lord and King, grant me to see my own transgressions, and not to judge my brother, for blessed art Thou, unto ages of ages. Amen.
