The Perfect Prayer to Start the Day

I’ve come across many “Morning Prayers” from believers in previous generations, but I have yet to find a richer or more appropriate prayer for organizing my thoughts every morning than this one, from the Book of Common Prayer.

“Almighty and everlasting Father,
You have brought me in safety to this new day.
Preserve me with Your mighty power
     that I might not sin
     nor be overcome by adversity,
and in all I do, direct me to the fulfillment of Your purpose,
        through Jesus Christ our Lord,
        Amen.”
