BEGIN THE DAY WITH GOD;
Kneel down to Him in prayer;
Lift up thy heart to His abode.
And seek Hid 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 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.
