By the light of the early morning we sing your praises o Lord, for we know that you are the King of all things!  You have created this world that we live in, you have made, by the work of your hand, all things.  You have given us life and light to live by, and you, O Lord, have forgiven our transgressions against you and your holy ways.  Go with us, we pray, throughout this day, and bring to us many who are desirous of hearing the good news about your Son, Jesus Christ.

Fill our hearts, we pray, with a gladness and willing desire to share this day, with all of those with whom we come into contact, be they a friend or a stranger.  Give us the words to say, and give us the boldness to speak up for you in our circle of friends and others. O Lord we ask these things that we may do our parts to build your Body on this earth, that we may share in your purpose, and we hope that by being willing to serve you, that the day will soon come when your will is done throughout this earth just as it is in Heaven, and so that in everything that we do this day, we will be pleasing in your sight.
