GIVE US THIS DAY
(Day / Kaye)

as recorded by Joni James & chorus
with orchestra conducted by David Terry
1956


Give us this day
To see thy guiding light above,
Give us this day
To share thy grace with those we love.
Let us tend a bough that's broken
With gentle care,
Be a friend to those who need us,
Just lead us there.

Give us this day
To show the way to everyone,
Give us this day
And thy commandments shall be done.
Comes the night, the peaceful night,
Silently we pray 
n thankfulness for giving us this day.

Give us this day
To show the way to everyone,
Give us this day
And thy commandments shall be done.
Comes the night, the peaceful night,
Silently we pray
In thankfulness for giving us this day.
