Luther's Morning Prayer
I thank You, my Heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ your dear Son
That you have kept me this night from all harm and danger
And I pray that you would keep me this day also from sin and every evil
That all my doings in life may please You
For into Your hands I commit myself - my body and soul and all things
Let Your Holy Angel be with me that the evil foe may have no power over me
Amen

Now, before I run to play, let me not forget to pray
To God who kept me through the night and woke me with the morning light
Help me, Lord, to love Thee more than I have ever loved before
In my work and in my play, be Thou with me through the day
Amen
