"I MEET GOD IN THE MORNING"
by HELEN STEINER RICE
"THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S
AND THE FULNESS THEREOF"-
IT SPEAKS OF HIS GREATNESS,
IT SINGS OF HIS LOVE,
AND EACH DAY AT DAWNING
I LIFT MY HEART HIGH
AND RAISE UP MY EYES
TO THE INFINITE SKY...
I WATCH THE NIGHT VANISH
AS A NEW DAY IS BORN,
AND I HEAR THE BIRDS SING
ON THE WINGS OF THE MORN,
I SEE THE DEW GLISTEN
IN CRYSTAL-LIKE SPLENDOR
WHILE GOD, WITH A TOUCH
THAT IS GENTLE AND TENDER,
WRAPS UP THE NIGHT
AND SOFTLY TUCKS IT AWAY
AND HANGS OUT THE SUN
TO HERALD A NEW DAY...
AND SO I GIVE THANKS
AND MY HEART KNEELS TO PRAY-
"GOD KEEP ME AND GUIDE ME
AND GO WITH ME TODAY.
... ALL THE EARTH SHALL BE FILLED
WITH THE GLORY OF THE LORD.
NUMBERS 14:21
YET, YOU DESIRE TRUTH AND SINCERITY.
DEEP DOWN INSIDE ME YOU TEACH ME WISDOM.
PSALM 51:6
GOD'S WORD
SO TEACH US TO NUMBER OUR DAYS,
THAT WE MAY GAIN A HEART OF WISDOM.

THE LORD SAYS, "I WILL MAKE YOU WISE
AND SHOW YOU WHERE TO GO.
I WILL GUIDE YOU AND WATCH OVER YOU."

WHOEVER IS WISE, LET HIM HEED THESE THINGS
AND CONSIDER THE GREAT LOVE OF THE LORD.

SAVE THY PEOPLE, AND BLESS THINE INHERITANCE:

TURN, O LORD, AND DELIVER ME;
SAVE ME BECAUSE OF YOUR UNFAILING LOVE.

REACH DOWN FROM HEAVEN AND RESCUE ME;
DELIVER ME FROM DEEP WATERS,
FROM THE POWER OF MY ENEMIES.
