Daily Prayers Dissolve Your Cares

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 could not solve

And in the peacefulness of sleep

My cares will all dissolve,

So when I open up my eyes

To greet another day

I will find myself renewed in strength

And there will open up a way

To meet what seemed impossible

For me to solve alone

And once again I will 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 are 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...

For there can be no failures

Or hopeless, unsaved sinners

If we enlist the help of God

Who makes all losers winners...

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.
