Psalm for Today

When the morning sky brightens
I thank my God.
When I get up from bed, I praise my Lord
Who created me and all living things.
When I think of my home, the green earth,
My gratitude knows no bounds;
Still, sometimes my way seems murky
With no clear path and I am troubled.
Even though I wander away from your great example,
You have promised to forgive.
What have I done to deserve such generosity?
How can I repay you for your faithfulness to me?
Keep me close, I pray, clear my vision and
Give me an understanding heart.
Instruct me in the way that leads to peace.
