A Daily Ditty

orchidee



Tune: Melcombe

('New every morning is the love')

**********

A day awakes, the darkness breaks

May we your servants, as each takes

The minutes and hours now new

Lord, seek to know your will to do

 

To do some good, for days they be

Evil, they short to last, we see

Here we be for a life-time's span

My we honour you as we can

 

Aiming to share your good news too

That others will the saviour view

Midst many things in life daily

Help us you by eye of faith see

 

Onward in life, progress each day

To grow more Christ-like in each way

And believers hope, heavenly home

Which by your grace we hope to come
