Shackled by a heavy burden, 'Neath a load of guilt and shame, Then the hand of Jesus touched me, And now I am no longer the same. He touched me, oh, He touched me, And oh, the joy that floods my soul. Something happened, and now I know, He touched me, and made me whole. 

Father, this is the day you’ve made, and we gladly rejoice and are glad to see it. Your grace woke us up this morning, Your mercy sustains us, and we know Your love and kindness will maintain us all the day long. Blessed be the name of our God. 

Lord, we need another touch from You. We need a word from You. We need an audience with You. You are our light and our salvation, in whom shall we fear. You are our strength, our delight and our everlasting hope. There is none like You. 

Holy Ghost help us now we pray. Lead us, guide us, empower and provide direction for every one of our thoughts, actions and deeds. Our lives are completely Yours. These things we affirm in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. 

Amen
