A Morning Prayer

By Mrs. L. R. Reynolds

LET my first waking moments be drawn from the world, Ere the tempter can whisper of doubt or of fear; Then my hope will be brighter, and faith stronger grow, And communion be sweeter. How precious to know Every blessing I need Thou wilt surely bestow! And this world will recede, and heaven draw near.
Let my first waking thoughts fly swiftly to thee, Ere their pinions are pressed with the day's busy care. Give me wisdom and strength, I earnestly pray, To labor for thee; and if only I may Bring some wanderer into thy haven to-day, Then I can rejoice; thou hast answered my prayer.
