Go with each of us to rest;

If we awake, temper to them the dark hours of watching;

And when the day returns, return to us,

Our Sun and Comforter, and call us up with

Morning faces and with morning hearts

Eager to labor, eager to be happy

If happiness would be our portion,

And if the day be marked for sorrow,

We are strong to endure it.

(from 12 Step Prayer Book)
