Morning Prayer
I woke up this morning
to the song of a robin
singing his morning prayers to the dawn,
announcing a new day.
I woke up this morning
to the gift of a new day,
a moment to raise up my heart to You, O Lord,
another opportunity
to be your light,
showing the daylight of Your hope
to the dark world around me.
O Lord,
Help me to be this day
sunlit with the Son's light,
and that as I go about my day,
I leave the places I go
Brighter with your love.
Amen.
