New Day

I rise

and give You

a prayer of thanks

for the new day

Sunshine

reflecting off

fallen snow

is a hint of Your grace

for me

this new day

I find

unlimited reasons

to smile

in this place

where You meet me

this new day

This is what comes to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

Because of the LORD's gracious love we are not consumed,

since his compassions never end.

They are new every morning—

great is your faithfulness!

"The LORD is all I have," says my soul,

"Therefore I will trust in him."

[Lamentations 3:21-24]
