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 things we should,
To be to others kind and good;
In all we do, in work or play,
To grow more loving every day.
Forgive us when we go astray,
Help us to walk the righteous way;
Bless us on earth, and grant that we
May live in Heaven some day with Thee.
---Alternative verses---
Help us to do the things we should,
To be to others kind and good;
In all we do, in work or play,
To love Thee better day by day.
