A PRAYER by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "FATHER, WE THANK THEE FOR THE NIGHT"
Last Line: "IN ALL WE DO, IN ALL WE SAY, / TO GROW MORE LOVING EVERY DAY"

Father, we thank Thee for the night
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care,
And all that makes the world so fair.
Help us to do the thing we should.
To be to others kind and good,
In all we do, in all we say,
To grow more loving every day.
