MORNING PRAYER

HOLY GOD, KIND GOD

YOU GAVE ME ANOTHER DAY
I THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT OF LIFE
I COME TO YOU
AND MY LIFE IS BUT A JOURNEY TOWARDS YOU
I OFFER YOU
MY EVERY THOUGHT AND DEED

AND ALL THAT IS DIFFICULT FOR ME
SHOW ME WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS EVIL
SO THAT I MAY NOT ERR
I WILL GLADLY DO WHAT YOU COMMAND
I WILL BEAR HAPPILY WHAT YOU LAY UPON MY
SHOULDERS
I WILL WORK WILLINGLY
ENLIGHTEN ME WITH YOUR LIGHT
STRENGTHEN ME WITH YOUR POWER
KEEP ME IN YOUR JOY
NOW OH GOD
I GO WITH YOUR LIGHT
YOUR JOY POUR INTO MY DAY’S WORK
LET MY LIFE BE A LIGHT.
