I owe the Lord a morning song
Of gratitude and praise,
For the kind mercy He has shown
In length’ning out my days.
He kept me safe another night;
I see another day;
Now may His Spirit, as the light,
Direct me in His way.
Keep me from danger and from sin;
Help me Thy will to do,
So that my heart be pure within,
And I Thy goodness know.
Keep me till Thou wilt call me hence,
Where never night can be;
And save me, Lord, for Jesus’ sake—
He shed His blood for me.
- Amos F. Herr wrote this song on a stormy Sunday morning in 1890 when the storm wouldn't let him go to church. He therefore created for himself an atmosphere of worship to the Lord in appreciation of His marvelous works.
REFLECTION
A good night sleep is not a function of your mattress size or quality
Waking up this morning is not because your alarm is loud
Mercy and grace have kept you
The Lord be praised.
Every rising of the sun presents another opportunity to do great things and do things better than before. It is the Lord that has kept us by His mercies, which are new every morning. Take time every morning to appreciate and thank Him for the life you live, He is the giver of life.
Praise ye the Lord!
Make a decision this day, never to fall out of the faith, but to keep standing for Him come what may, to continually do His will, so that He may recieve you at the end.
