My Morning Prayer

Early in the morning, first thing as I rise

As sunlight filters thru the window into sleepy eyes,

I think of all the blessings that the Lord has given me

That warms my heart and joys my soul- I fall down on my knees.

For waking up this morning, for another breath of life,

For protection as I travel down this road of pain and strife;

For dressing me in my right mind, for giving me a choice

Of serving Thee in actions, and praising Thee with voice!

For showing me forgiveness, for Your mercy and Your grace;

For teaching me to live my life at a stronger, slower pace.

For surrounding me with the love of both friends and family,

For all these many blessings, Lord, I give thanks to Thee!
