Lord, as I begin my work today 
Please help me to be aware 
Of everyone you have allowed to work with me 
Taking time to cover each and everyone in prayer
Help me to not react so personal 
If someone else is having a bad morning 
For in that reaction of mine to them 
Satan can attack me without warning 
Let me show the respect I desire to others
Help me to not judge or condemn
Let what they see in me in my day 
Be a wonderful bright spot to them 
Let me reach out a willing hand 
To that one that is about to fall 
Sharing the strength You have given to me 
For You hold me up as I walk through it all
Help me to keep that smile of Grace 
Flowing as the hours pass on by 
For I have found Your Grace so abundant 
As tiredness and fatigue brought a tear to my eye
Let peace and harmony be what will reign 
As together we work as we should 
We will know Your presence sustained us 
As only a kind loving God could do!!
