On waking

Mary H. Reed

Thanks, God, for wonderful yesterday,
and for this one that's on the way.
Remind me, please, to pause to pray
right in the middle of my work or play.
I won't be pushed by my selfish will;
I'll try very hard to stop, be still,
to listen to what You'd have me do,
to feel, and think, and see what's true.

Now this is what I like to say
as I hop out to start the day:
I love You, God; I'm glad to see
the good You have all set for me.
