Prayers for Morning

For Another Day

by Bill P. and Lisa D. The 12 Step Prayer Book

Thank you, dear God, for another day,
The chance to live in a decent way,
To feel again the joy of living,
And happiness that comes from giving.
Thank you for friend that can understand
And the peace that flows from Your loving hand.
Help me to wake with the morning sun
With the prayer, "Today Thy will be done,"
For with Your help I find the way.
Thank you again, dear God for another day.

My day begins again.
And again I dedicate myself to the service of the Gods.
May it be their tasks I perform.

It is my privilege to perform my morning prayers.
It is my honor to do what should be done.
As I rise with the morning, fog lifting slowly from my mind,
I pray not to forget these truths.

Mother of All, Father of All:
As I go through the day,
Keep my eyes open wide.
May I not miss beauty.
May I not miss joy.
May I not miss wonder.
Keep me awake and aware of the world.

The tears of the dawn still sparkle on the grass as I begin my day.
God of beginnings, bless my beginning.
Open paths before me, make easy my way. May I go through the day with ease
And end in thankfulness.

Bright youth, newly born, I pray to you.
A fresh day has been given to me;
May I be worthy of the gift.

Holy ancestors,
Your blood is my blood,
Flowing out of the past, through me to the future.
Through my actions, you live.
Guide me then, in the decision I face today,
Making clear to me the safe path between obstacles
And keeping me from false steps along the way.

Adapted from a prayer by Scott Cunningham- Living Wicca

O Gracious Goddess,
O Gracious God,
Lend me health, strength and love
During this coming day that I may do your will.
Assist me with the challenges ahead.
Share Your divine wisdom.
Teach me to respect all things.
Remind me that the greatest power of all is love.
Blessed Be.

Prayer to the Cosmic Mother

Abby Willowroot- SpiralGoddess.com

Oh Goddess Mother,
You are the mystery of Night,
Your radiant shine is the Day,
Infinite realms cascade within You,
Abundance is Your essence of Being,
Blessings flow from You Limitlessly,
Your Universe is harmony and tension in Balance,
Within each of us, You are Alive.

Child's Prayer for Guidance

by: Ceisiwr Serith - A Book of Pagan Prayer

As I grow and learn,
help me, O Mother,
help me, O Father,
to know what is right
and to do only that.

Chant for Inner Strength

by Autumn Raindancer

I call the light of golden rays
I seek protection thus,
I pray for heavenly forces at my side
angels, sages, spirit guides or wolves
who walk with cunning skill
Come to my aid!
Come at my will!
Black bird soaring light my path
so I am victim to no one's wrath!
And when my journey knows success,
all those who aid me Goddess bless!

Prayer for Morning

by: Ceisiwr Serith - A Book of Pagan Prayer

I raise my hands in honor of the Lord of the morning,
who rises in glory in the east of the world.
Piercer of darkness, illumine my path as I go through my day.
Way-shower, illumine my path as I go through my life.

Invocation to the Dawn

Kálidása

Look to this day, for it is Life, the very life of Life;
In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence...
the bliss of Growth, the glory of Action, the splendour of Beauty.
For Yesterday is but a dream,
and Tomorrow only a vision;
But Today well lived makes Yesterday a dream of Happiness
and Tomorrow a vision of Hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.
Such is the salutation to the Dawn.

Earth Our Mother

Earth our mother, breathe forth life
all night sleeping
now awakening
in the east
now see the dawn.

Earth our mother, breathe and waken
leaves are stirring
all things moving
new day coming
life renewing.
