A Prayer To Start The Day!

Lord,

You Have Awakened Me

From A Peaceful Night's Sleep!

Through The Dark Night

My Soul, You Did Keep!

Now That I Rise

To Face The Unknown Day

I Pray You, Please

Keep Me

Lead Me Safely Along 

The Straight And Narrow Way

So That I

From Your Side

Will Not Ever Look To Stray!

I Thank You, Lord

For The Good Things I Will Receive!

I Thank You For Teaching Me

So Satan Can't Me Deceive!

I Thank You For The Gifts

Of

Dear Mercy

And

Blessed Grace

And

I Thank You, Lord

For The Promise

That Gives Me Faith's Look

Upon My Beloved Savior's Face!

Father,

Forgive Me

For The Mistakes Of Yesterday!

Forgive Me For Any Unkind Words Spoken

That My Brethren May Have Heard Me Say!

Forgive Me, Lord

And

Correct Me

If I

To Any Fellow

Display An Uncaring Attitude

And

Help Me To Display Good Fruit

For In Christ I Know

My Tree Has Good Roots!

Help Me, Dear Lord

Not To Covet

What Another Person Has!

Help Me To Be Ever Content

To Dwell Within My Savior's Love

For He Who Saves

Feeds

Helps

Shelters And Protects

And

Provides For Daily Needs

Including

Necessary Shoes And Clothes!

Lord,

Help Over Mere Things Not To Fret!

Help Me, Lord

To Appreciate Your Artist's Hand!

Help Me To Appreciate

The Visible Proofs Of Your Blessings

No Matter Where

- House, Hovel

Cave, Street Corner, Barn -

I May Find Myself

If I Become A Victim

Of A Cruel Circumstance!

Lord, I Trust You!

Help Me, Lord

Not To Credit My Eye

My Feelings

Nor The Noise Of The Clamoring World

But Help Me To Continue 

To Faithfully Trust

In The Living Word

Of

The Giving God

So That I May Reach The End Of My Life

- Or The End Of Fleeting Time -

Anchored By Ever-Increasing Faith

So That I May Gain

Your Precious

And

Great

And

Unthought-Of Reward!

Oh, Father!

My Father!

Keep Me Faithful

For I Am Truly Blessed!

Help Me Not To Lean

To The Fallen-Away Left

And

Help To Walk

Upward

And

Onward, Lord

Depending On You

Who - Alone -

Is Faithful, Kind, Comforting

And

Ever True!

Thank You For Listening, Lord!

Keep Me Talking To You!

Keep Me Listening To 

And

Obeying You

And

Help Me To Hold Fast Unto You

For

I Do Indeed Love You!

Remember The Faithful!

Humble The Proud!

Lift Up The Fallen!

And

Bless All Who Are Looking For

The Real Lord Christ's True Transport Cloud

With Overcomer's Eyesight

And

Endurance!

I Pray All In The Name

Of

Jesus Christ The Righteous!

Have Mercy, Lord!

AMEN.
