A new brother sent me a prose this morn,

A gift with this new day was born.

The older I get, the more precious the gift.

All the more I treasure this strong love,

Which enables me today from above.

To do the things that without Him I cannot do,

But with Him, I am sure and strong through and through.

I ask for help with each new day,

And start this way, come what may.

So I start this morn claiming His power,

For surely, I need Him every hour.

I know He will strengthen me this very day,

Because I start with Him, Jesus will strengthen my way!
