Allow me each day to rise with a smile
As Your blessing of grace embraces me
Let my hearts love come to life in words
Yes in lovely heartfelt psalms of praise

Your love brings special assurances to life
More priceless than any worldly treasure
And each moment my spirit spends with You
Your love adorns me with lasting pleasures

I’m honored each day You allow me to rise
Especially as Your spirit leads me to write
Acknowledging the amazing gift blessings
You share with me each moment of my life

There will never be a time more precious Lord
Then when I awaken with thoughts of Your love
Inspired by the gentle embrace of Your Spirit
Reminding my heart why You are all I think of.

Psalm 16:5-11
You, Lord, are all I have, and you give me all I
need; my future is in your hands. How wonderful
are your gifts to me; how good they are! I praise
the Lord, because he guides me, and in the night
my conscience warns me. I am always aware of the
Lord’s presence; he is near, and nothing can
shake me. And so I am thankful and glad, and I
feel completely secure because you protect me
from the power of death. I have served you
faithfully, and you will not abandon me to the
world of the dead. You will show me the path that
leads to life; your presence fills me with joy
and brings me pleasure forever.
