A Morning Prayer


Starting the Day with God

What a joy this morning waking up,
The smell of java that is in my cup;
Birds flying pass through the air,
As I kneel in private for a prayer.

I want to thank God for a new day,
And all the blessings sent my way;
Ever present for a boost and hope,
Traveling through life for to cope.

I thank Him for my good health,
As well as with all of my wealth;
More than money of having value,
Being rich in family and friends too.

With starting out refreshed I also ask,
Give me courage facing each task;
Granting safe travel to and from work,
Avoiding where the evil desires lurk.

And in closing I ask Him to bless,
Those unfortunate with even less;
That they will be given an insight,
Raising their faith in seeing the light.
