Prayer 2470: A song of praise throughout the day


O God who sustains me all my days, 
and nourishes my spirit with your steadfast love, 
hear my prayer in the morning light. 
Each hour I will proclaim your goodness 
and marvel at the intricate works of your hand, 
arrayed before my wondering eyes. 

Forgive my offenses, O Merciful One, 
and take me by the hand to lead me. 

Accept my humble praises 
before your glorious dawn, 
guide my feet at noonday's crest, 
and enfold my cares when I lay down to sleep. 
Even in the velvet dark I will rejoice 
at your hand upon the crown of my head, 
at your mercy and grace under which I rest. 

Watch over all who seek You, 
O God Who Sees, 
and send your angels to tend to those 
whose hopes rest in You, as we pray.

Amen.
