The Days Needs

Each day I pray, God give me strength anew,

To do the task I do not wish to do;

To yield obedience, not asking why,

To love and own the truth and scorn to lie;

To look a cold world bravely in the face;

To cheer for those that pass me in the race;

To bear my burdens gaily, unafraid;

To lend a hand to those that need my aid;

To measure what I am by what I give;

God, give me strength that I may rightly live!
