In the quiet of the dawn, before the world awakes,
We bow our heads, our hearts unfold, before the day partakes.
Confessing every hidden sin, the wrongs that we have sown,
In detail, to our God above, we bring them to His throne.
With confidence, we ask of Him, our needs both big and small,
Acknowledging His sovereignty, in Him, we give our all.
In every way, and all we do, His presence we implore,
Understanding on our own, we can’t endure the war.
We need Him in our thoughts, our minds, our bodies, and our souls,
To cover us, to guide our steps, to help us reach our goals.
In morning light and evening’s calm, His grace we do beseech,
To always walk in His ways, His love and mercy teach.
God, forgive us, as we strive to turn from sin’s embrace,
Help us to repent, to heal, in Your abounding grace.
From trauma, patterns that defeat, the chains that hold us tight,
Lead us from the darkness, Lord, into Your glorious light.
For every moment, every step, decision we must face,
We ask You, Lord, to be our guide, with Your unending grace.
In every choice and challenge met, may we Your wisdom seek,
For in our weakness, we are strong, when it’s Your face we seek.
So, God, we need You, endlessly, in every breath, each day,
To be our guide, our strength, our hope, to light our wayward way.
May we remember, always turn, to ask for Your forgiveness,
And in Your love, find peace and joy, a life of true blessedness.
Amen.
