The day is new the sun is bright,
Thank you Lord for seeing me through the night.

Thank you for this brand new day,
may all that I do be done in your loving way.

May the people with whom I meet face to face,
know I am your loving servant in this time and place.

May the memories I make as I go through this day,
bring happiness to others as they are recalled in any way.

May the choices I make be those prompted by you,
may it be your countenance others see when I come into view.

May the trials and tribulations I must face today,
add to my life in a character building way.

Help me to count my blessings and be grateful to you,
for all of the loving kind things you do.

May I consider those I'd rather not face today,
and in gratitude thank you they are not worse in some way.

I guess what I'm asking is that I be submissive in each and every aspect,
accepting what comes and showing You love and respect.

And as I lay my head to sleep one more time,
may I be assured that if I do not wake my soul is thine.

Thank you Father for the opportunity to serve you this day,
may all that I do bring Honor to you in some way.
