A Prayer to Begin the Day from Henry Stobart (1824-1895)

Into thy hands, O Lord, we commend our spirits, souls, and bodies, for Thou hast created and redeemed them, O Lord God Almighty. Guide us this day with Thine eye and kindle thy light in our hearts, that Thy godly knowledge increasing in us more and more, we may always be found to walk and live after Thy will and pleasure, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

–Henry Stobart, Daily Services For Christian Households (London: SPCK,1867), p. 72
