GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST
GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST
AND PEACE ON EARTH TO MEN-
MAY THE CHRISTMAS SONG THE ANGELS
SANG STIR IN OUR HEARTS AGAIN
AND BRING A NEW AWARENESS
THAT THE FATE OF EVERY NATION
IS SEALED SECURELY IN THE HAND
OF THE MAKER OF CREATION.
FOR MAN, WITH ALL HIS KNOWLEDGE,
HIS INVENTIONS, AND HIS SKILL,
CAN NEVER GO AN INCH BEYOND
THE HOLY FATHER'S WILL,
FOR GREATER THAN THE SCOPE OF MAN
AND FAR BEYOND ALL SEEING,
IN HIM WHO MADE THE UNIVERSE,
MAN LIVES AND HAS HIS BEING.
OPEN MY EYES TO SEE
THE WONDERFUL TRUTHS IN YOUR LAW.

I DESIRE TO DO YOUR WILL, O MY GOD;
YOUR LAW IS WITHIN MY HEART.

WORKS TO BE REMEMBERED;

COMPASSION.

LET YOUR LOVE AND TRUTH ALWAYS PROTECT ME.

PSALM 145:9

AS A FATHER HAS COMPASSION ON HIS CHILDREN,
SO THE LORD HAS COMPASSION ON
THOSE WHO FEAR HIM.

HAVE PITY ON ME, O GOD, IN KEEPING
WITH YOUR MERCY.
IN KEEPING WITH YOUR UNLIMITED COMPASSION,
WIPE OUT MY REBELLIOUS ACTS.

 FAITH IS A CANDLE by HELEN STEINER RICE  IN THIS SICK WORLD OF HATRED AND VIOLENCE AND SIN, WHERE MEN RENOUNCE MORALS AND REJECT DISCIPLINE, WE STUMBLE IN "DARKNESS" GROPING VAINLY FOR "LIGHT" TO DISTINGUISH THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WRONG AND RIGHT, BUT DAWN CANNOT FOLLOW THIS NIGHT OF DESPAIR UNLESS FAITH LIGHTS A CANDLE IN ALL HEARTS EVERYWHERE AND WARMED BY THE GLOW OUR HATE MELTS AWAY AND LOVE LIGHTS THE PATH TO A PEACEFUL, NEW DAY.

DAILY PRAYERS DISSOLVE
YOUR CARES
by HELEN STEINER RICE
I MEET GOD IN THE MORNING
AND GO WITH HIM THROUGH THE DAY,
THEN IN THE STILLNESS OF THE NIGHT
BEFORE SLEEP COMES I PRAY
THAT GOD WILL JUST "TAKE OVER"
ALL THE PROBLEMS I COULDN'T SOLVE
AND IN THE PEACEFULNESS OF SLEEP
MY CARES WILL ALL DISSOLVE,
SO WHEN I OPEN MY EYES
TO GREET ANOTHER DAY
I'LL FIND MYSELF RENEWED IN STRENGTH
AND THERE'LL OPEN UP A WAY
TO MEET WHAT SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE
FOR ME TO SOLVE ALONE
AND ONCE AGAIN I'LL BE ASSURED
I AM NEVER "ON MY OWN"...
FOR IF WE TRY TO STAND ALONE
WE ARE WEAK AND WE WILL FALL,
FOR GOD IS ALWAYS GREATEST
WHEN WE'RE HELPLESS, LOST, AND SMALL,
AND NO DAY IS UNMEETABLE
IF ON RISING OUR FIRST THOUGHT
IS TO THANK GOD FOR THE BLESSINGS
THAT HIS LOVING CARE HAS BROUGHT...
SO MEET HIM IN THE MORNING
AND GO WITH HIM THROUGH THE DAY
AND THANK HIM FOR HIS GUIDANCE
EACH EVENING WHEN YOU PRAY,
AND IF YOU FOLLOW FAITHFULLY
THIS DAILY WAY TO PRAY
YOU WILL NEVER IN YOUR LIFETIME
FACE ANOTHER " HOPELESS DAY."
I WILL TALK TO OTHERS ALL DAY LONG
ABOUT YOUR JUSTICE AND YOUR GOODNESS.
FOR ALL WHO TRIED TO HURT ME HAVE BEEN
DISGRACED AND DISHONORED.
PSALM 71:24
TLB
MY STRONG LOVE FOR YOUR TEMPLE
COMPLETELY CONTROLS ME.
WHEN PEOPLE INSULT YOU, IT HURTS ME.
PSALM 69:9
NCV
LEAD ME IN THY TRUTH, AND TEACH ME:
FOR THOU ART THE GOD OF MY SALVATION;
ON THEE DO I WAIT ALL THE DAY.
PSALM 25:5
KJV
LEAD ME IN THE PATH OF YOUR
COMMANDMENTS, FOR
I DELIGHT IN IT.
PSALM 119:35
NRSV
MY HONOR AND SALVATION COME FROM GOD.
HE IS MY MIGHTY ROCK AND MY PROTECTION.
PSALM 62;7
NCV
YOU GUIDE ME WITH YOUR COUNSEL,
AND AFTERWARD YOU WILL TAKE ME
INTO GLORY.
PSALM 73:24
NIV
