Abba Father, another day’s upon me. I can’t go on
Save by your strength, by grace alone.
Give me this day my daily bread
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Let me not fret about the troubles of tomorrow
You carried me through yesterday,
Many a yesterday you’ve carried me through
Like a lamb in your bosom, I’m borne
Your mercies shower upon me
May thy Word be ever on my mind, a light unto my path
May ceaseless prayer be on my lips
Let my prayer be counted as incense before you
Let my prayer be counted as incense before you
This day you have made. Cause my soul to rejoice
Come rain or come shine.
May my work be a joy, not a burden
May I work like an ant, not given to sloth
Let me not weary of the course you’ve set before me
Moment by moment, I’m sustained by your grace,
Never alone or forsaken.
Deliver me from evil. Help me take the way of escape
When temptations threaten to slay me.
May my will ever be submitted to thine,
Loving my neighbor and thee, Divine,
My selfish ambitions mortified.
You’ve blessed me and kept me-
My sins washed away, not held against me
You’re face shines upon me
Help my heart to worship you in all that I do
May your light shine through me
May your light shine through all your people-
Lanterns illuminating the world. May rays of light
Shine upon every tribe and nation.
For through his death many sons are brought to glory
May I with courage, fight the good fight
I’ve no strength of my own, my faith is in you
May I, your weak child, lean into your strength
Knowing that you began a good work in me
And will complete it. You’re faithful and true
You are not slack concerning your promises
By grace alone through faith alone
I steadfastly walk with thee through this passing age
With my eyes on the world without end* This prayer includes several Scripture references and includes direct quotes from the Lord's prayer
After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread.And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13
