Morning Prayer

  • I call upon you, O Lord.
    In the morning you hear me;
    in the morning I offer you my prayer, watching and waiting. . .Psalm 5

    I lift my heart to you, O Lord,
    to be strengthened for this day.
    Be with me in all I do, my God;
    guide me in all my ways.

    I will carry some burdens today;
    some trials will be mine.
    So I wait for your help, Lord,
    lest I stumble and fall.

    I will do my work, Father,
    the work begun by your Son.
    He lives in me and I in him;
    may his work today be done.

    Glory to the Father. . .

    Reading

    Do to no one what you yourself dislike.
    Give to the hungry some of your bread,
    and to the naked some of your clothing.
    Seek counsel from every wise person.
    At all times bless the Lord God,
    and ask God to make all your paths straight
    and to grant success to all your endeavors and plans. 
    Tobit 4:15a, 16a, 18a, 19

    God of all kindness, bless your church,
    --make your people faithful to you.
    Eternal Shepherd, look kindly on our Holy Father and all bishops,
    --grant them wisdom and courage.
    Ruler of Nations, look kindly on those who govern;
    --guide them in the ways of peace.
    Judge of the living and the dead,
    be merciful to our deceased brothers and sisters;
    --receive them into eternal joy.
