NEW-DAY PRAYER.
Ere thou risest from thy bed,
Speak to God whose wings were
spread
('er thee in the heipness night—
Lo, He wakes thee now with light!
Lift thy burden and thy care
In the mighty arms of prayer:
Lord, the ncwhess of this day
Calls me to an untireq way:
Let me gladly take the road,
Give me strength to bear my
load,
Thou my guide and helper be»—‘
I will travel through with Then.‘
—Henry Van Dyke. |
