As I open my eyes to a brand new day
“Thank You Lord” is the first thing I say
Thank You for waking me up this morn
Thank You for keeping me safe from harm
I start this day with You in my heart
Out of Your sight I will never depart
As I rise to face this day ahead
With You in me I have nothing to dread
I know I don’t face this day alone
For You are in charge, You are still on the throne
I ask You to guide my footsteps this day
To lead me, and teach me, and show me the way
I know with this day comes new trials and tests
I promise You Lord, I will give You my best
Greater is He that is in me this day
Than any trial or test that might come my way
I pray Your light will shine through me today
As a blessing to others who don’t know the way
In this brand new day, may Your will be done
May some lost souls be brought to Your Son
May I use this day wisely and not miss a chance
To share You with others in all circumstance
I praise You dear Lord from my heart of hearts
And now I am ready for my new day to start
AMEN
