BEGIN THE DAY WITH GOD

Begin the day with God, my friend.

Spend time with Him in prayer.

Make your requests known unto Him,

Then leave them in His care.

Spend time just listening to Him speak

The words that He would say,

A heart to heart communion in

The dawning of the day.

Then as the birds their carols sing,

Lift up your voice in praise.

Sing to the Lord a joyful song

For all His wondrous ways.

Go through the day with God, my friend,

‘Tho busy you may be,

No matter where you find yourself

Still seek His company.

A day that’s spent in tune with God

Will bring you sweet content.

You’ll find your day more purposeful

With blessings heaven-sent.

O sing to the Lord

A new song:

Sing to the Lord

all the earth.
