Autumn dawn

Begin the day with God
Kneel down to Him in prayer;
Lift up thy heart to His abode.
And seek His love to share.

Open the book of God
And read a portion there;
That it may Hallow all thy thoughts,
And sweeten all thy care.

Go through the day with God
Whate’er thy work may be;
Where’er thou art-at home,abroad,
He still is near to thee.

Converse in the mind with God
Thy spirit heavenward raise:
Acknowledge every good bestowed,
And offer grateful praise.

Conclude the day with God
Thy sins to Him confess;
Trust in the Lord’s atoning blood,

And plead His righteousness.
Lie down at night with God
Who gives His servants sleep;
And when thou tread’st the vale of death,
He will thee guard and keep.
