Lord, as I wake to the morning light
I thank you for keeping me through the night
and as I start another day, I ask your guidance along the way,
that I might be thoughtful for the needs of others
and not my own. Maybe make a lonely person feel less alone.
For those who need an encouraging word, give me kind words,
to say, to make them feel better about the thing that is
bothering them today.To the ones that are happy and living
in your will, help me to make them happier still.
I guess what I'm asking of you, is that you stay close
by my side and make me worthy for those that I meet
to use my life as their guide. Amen
