Morning Prayer

Morning Prayer

Dear Father who reigns from heaven above,
Guide me that I may reflect your Holy love.
Let your spirit dwell boldly with me this day,
That I respect your name in what I do and say.

Reveal your will to me and help me to obey,
May you rule in my life each and every day.
Provide for me my Lord, all of my daily needs,
And remove from my life all the choking weeds.

Take from me all the wickedness of my Youth,
Fill me with your love and Holy word of truth.
For those who I think have hurt me in the past,
Teach me to forgive that I may be freed at last.

Let me not be tempted by the what I may see,
The deceptive beauty of the sin that surrounds me.
But stand guard over my heart that I am protected,
That this, your temple does not become infected.

It is only by your mighty power that I may see,
Your wondrous kingdom you have promised me.
Guide me Lord that I may live this life to your glory,
let me tell everyone who will hear your beautiful story.

Lord Jesus lead me on,
Amen
