Daily Affirmations - Day 5: Practicing the Presence

 

He holds success in store for the upright, He is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for He guards the course of the just and protects the way of His faithful ones (Proverbs 2:7-8).


Mountains, trees and flowers in purple hues

O my God, since Thou art with me, and I must now, in obedience to Thy commands, apply my mind to these outward things, I beseech Thee to grant me the grace to continue in Thy presence; and to this end do Thou prosper me with Thy assistance, receive all my works, and possess all my affections.

 

~ Brother Lawrence ~ Prayer for Success in Tasks ~ Practicing the Presence of God


 

Come, O thou God of grace,

Make this a holy place,

Where Christ is heard.

Draw every heart to Thee,

And may our worship be

Lives offered pure and free

To Christ, our Lord!


Be in each song of praise

Which here thy people raise

With hearts aflame!

Let every anthem rise

Like incense to the skies,

A joyful sacrifice

To Thy blest Name!


Speak, O eternal Lord,

Out of Thy living Word,

O give success!

Do Thou the truth impart

Unto each waiting heart;

Source of all strength Thou art;

Thy gospel bless!


To the great One in Three

Glory and praises be

In love now giv’n!

Glad songs to Thee we sing,

Glad hearts to Thee we bring,

Till we our God and King

Shall praise in heav’n!


~ William E. Evans ~ 1886
