CHRISTIAN PRAYERS (18)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Bishop Charles Lewis Slattery's (1867-1930) Prayer for the Work Day.

Almighty God, thank Thee for the job of this day.
May we find gladness in all its toil and difficulty,
its pleasure and success,
and even in its failure and sorrow.
We would look always away from ourselves,
and behold the glory and the need of the world
that we may have the will and the strength to bring
the gift of gladness to others;
that with them we stand to bear
the burden and heat of the day
and offer Thee the praise of work well done.

Amen.

The End ...
