261. Begin the day with God

1 Begin the day with God,
Kneel down to Him in prayer;
Lift up thy heart to His abode,
And seek His love to share.

2 Open the Book of God,
And read a portion there;
That it may hallow all thy thoughts,
And sweeten all thy care.

3 Go through the day with God,
Whate'er thy work may be;
Where'er thou art--at home, abroad,
He still is near to thee.

4 Conclude the day with God;
Thy sins to Him confess;
Trust in the Lord's atoning blood,
And plead His righteousness.
