DAILY PRAYERS DISSOLVE
 YOUR  CARES
 
by HELEN STEINER RICE
 
 

I MEET GOD IN THE MORNING
AND GO WITH HIM THROUGH THE DAY,
THEN IN THE STILLNESS OF THE NIGHT
BEFORE SLEEP COMES I PRAY
THAT GOD WILL JUST "TAKE OVER"
ALL THE PROBLEMS I COULDN'T SOLVE
AND IN THE PEACEFULNESS  OF SLEEP
MY CARES WILL ALL DISSOLVE,
SO WHEN I OPEN MY EYES
TO GREET ANOTHER DAY
I'LL FIND MYSELF RENEWED IN STRENGTH
AND THERE'LL OPEN UP A WAY
TO MEET WHAT SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE
FOR ME TO SOLVE ALONE
AND ONCE AGAIN I'LL BE ASSURED
I AM NEVER "ON MY OWN"...
FOR IF WE TRY TO STAND ALONE
WE ARE WEAK AND WE WILL FALL,
FOR GOD IS ALWAYS GREATEST
WHEN WE'RE HELPLESS, LOST, AND SMALL,
AND NO DAY IS UNMEETABLE
IF ON RISING OUR FIRST THOUGHT
IS TO THANK GOD FOR THE BLESSINGS
THAT HIS LOVING CARE HAS BROUGHT...
SO MEET HIM IN THE MORNING
AND GO WITH HIM THROUGH THE DAY
AND THANK HIM FOR HIS GUIDANCE
EACH EVENING WHEN YOU PRAY,
AND IF YOU FOLLOW FAITHFULLY
THIS DAILY WAY TO PRAY
YOU WILL NEVER IN YOUR LIFETIME
FACE ANOTHER " HOPELESS DAY."



 





I WILL TALK TO OTHERS ALL DAY LONG
ABOUT YOUR JUSTICE AND YOUR GOODNESS.
FOR ALL WHO TRIED TO HURT ME HAVE BEEN
DISGRACED AND DISHONORED.
