That's too long to keep in mind. It's much easier to keep a hymn or psalm based on the same words in your mind, bringing you back to the same points. I find "ubi caritas et amor, ubi caritas, deus ibi est" from Taize is a good one, or the hymn "Where is love and loving kindness/God is fain to dwell" works well if you can remember many of the words. I particularly find helpful the lines, "therefore, when we meet, the flock of Christ, so loving, take we heed lest bitterness be there engendered."
