He who rules the world with truth and grace,
We praise You Lord this morning with our whole hearts. Thank you for spinning us into a new day. Thank you for watching over the millions of galaxies last night. Thank you that by Your power all life is sustained. We know that by You our sleeping bodies arose this morning. We know that there is no alarm clock, rooster or devising of our own that brought us from that REM existence. We thank You for remembering us, that we are dust. But we thank you Lord for dying for mere dust. Our thank you's do not truly show our deep gratitude and we ask this morning that You give us a heart to obey Your every Word. For we know that obedience is the very best way to show what we believe. Help us today, we pray, in Christ Jesus' holy name. Amen.
