  Text	At Dawn and Dark With thanks for each new morn, / That there is born / New life, new hope, new day, / And a new way - / With smiles for sunlit or beclouded skies - / So let me rise. / With thanks when day is done, / That sleep is won - / That something has been spent / To good intent, / And something gained of good, if not the best - / So let me rest. A.L. Salmon
