September 7th Daily Hymn, Readings, Word, Psalm and Prayer

Hymn of the Day
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole; there is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul. Sometimes I feel discouraged and think my work's in vain, but then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again. There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole' there is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul. ("There Is a Balm in Gilead" - Text: African American spiritual)

Psalm of the Day
There are times when I am weary and worried.
There are times when I am frustrated.
There are times when I have lost hope.
There are times when I explode in anger.
There are times when I sin.

Forgive my sinfulness Lord.
Forgive my worry and frustration.
Forgive me for losing hope.
Forgive my temper and rage.
Forgive my sin dear Lord.

Rescue me in the midst of the battle.
Save my life from my selfish pride.
Humble me in Your presence.
Love me with Your Love.
Send me in Your Grace.

I love You Lord God my Savior.
I honor and praise Your name.

There is no one besides You.
You are my King, Savior, Brother and Lord of all.
