Today's Prayer

seal Almighty and everlasting God, in whom we live and move and have our being; We, thy creatures, render thee our humble praises, for thy preservation o f us from the beginning of our lives to this day, and especially for having delivered us from the dangers of the past night. For these thy mercies, we bless and magnify thy glorious Name; humbly beseeching thee to accept this our morning sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving; for his sake who lay down in the grave, and rose again for us, thy Son our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen
