Now I awake and see the light;

Lord, Thou hast kept me through the night.

To Thee I lift my voice and pray

That Thou wilt keep me through the day.

If I should die before 'tis done,

O God, accept me through Thy Son! Amen.

The morning bright

With rosy light

Has waked me from my sleep;

Father, I own

Thy love alone

Thy little one doth keep.

All through the day,

I humbly pray,

Be Thou my Guard and Guide;

My sins forgive

And let me live,

Blest Jesus, near Thy side. Amen.

Now I raise me up from sleep,

I thank the Lord who did me keep,

All through the night; and to Him pray

That He may keep me through the day.

All which for Jesus' sake, I say. Amen.

O help me, Lord, this day to be

Thy own dear child and follow Thee;

And lead me, Savior, by Thy hand

Until I reach the heavenly land. Amen.

O Lord, my God, to Thee pray

While from my bed I rise

That all I do and all I say

Be pleasing to Thine eyes. Amen.

Jesus, Lord, to Thee I pray,

Guide and guard me through this day.

As the shepherd tends his sheep.

Lord, me safe from evil keep.

Keep my feet from every snare,

Keep me with Thy watchful care.

All my little wants supply

If I live or if I die.

And when life, O Lord, is past,

Take me to Thyself at last. Amen.

In the early morning,

With the sun's first rays.

All God's little children

Thank and pray and praise.

I, too, thanks would offer,

Jesus, Shepherd dear,

For Thy tender pasture,

For Thy guiding care.

And I would implore Thee,

Be with me this day,

Lest I from Thee wander,

Into danger stray. Amen.

For this new morning with its light,

For rest and shelter of the night,

For health and food, for love and friends.

For everything Thy goodness sends,

We thank Thee, dearest Lord. Amen.

I thank Thee, Lord, for sleep and rest,

For all the things that I love best,

Now guide me through another day

And bless my work and bless my play.

Lord, make me strong for noble ends,

Protect and bless my loving friends;

Of all mankind good Christians make.

All this I ask for Jesus' sake. Amen.

Jesus, gentle Shepherd,

Bless Thy lamb to-day;

Keep me in Thy footsteps,

Never let me stray.

Guard me through the daytime.

Every hour, I pray;

Keep my feet from straying

From the narrow way. Amen.

Keep my little tongue to-day,

Keep it gentle while I play;

Keep my hands from doing wrong.

Keep my feet the whole day long;

Keep me all, O Jesus mild,

Keep me ever Thy dear child. Amen.

Jesus, keep me all this day.

When at school and when at play;

May I do all things I ought,

May I hate each evil thought;

Help me love and trust in Thee

Now and through eternity. Amen.

O blessed Lord, protect Thou me

And my dear parents graciously;

With Thy strong arm be ever near

To brothers and to sisters dear.

And all our loved ones in the land,

Protect them with Thine own right hand.

From sin defend and keep me free;

Help me a Christlike child to be. Amen.

My Father, for another night

Of quiet sleep and rest.

For all the joys of morning light,

Thy holy name be blest. Amen.

Now with the new-born day I give

Myself anew to Thee,

That as Thou willest, I may live,

And what Thou willest, be. Amen.

Lord, for the mercies of this night

My humble thanks I pay

And unto Thee I give myself

To-day and every day. Amen.

Whate'er I do, things great or small

Whate'er I speak or frame.

Thy glory may I seek in all,

Do all in Jesus' name.

My Father, for His sake I pray.

Thy child accept and bless

And lead me by Thy grace to-day

In paths of righteousness. Amen.
