This is beautiful. It's a wonderful reminder of what to pray when we start each day. I often write inspirational words on my window to remind me. I think I'm going to write a stanza or two of this delightful poem. Thank you for blessing me with your words.

You've so beautifully captured the thoughts and emotions of my focus each morning, except that I haven't ever put them all into words. Now, I can just take yours, right? Since poetry isn't my forte, I'll save time and have a better outcome if I keep yours closeby. Thanks for sharing!

Your poem was like David's praise in Psalm.

This is inspiring stuff. And just to take Bonnie's thought a little further, I can envisage an antiphonal use of this in liturgical worship - especially during a conference in which everyone is attending for very similar reasons.
A single leader, or different leaders could introduce each stanza and read the start of each line, with the congregation responding:"at the start of my day;" and "at the start and duration of my day" to close.
It might be an extra avenue for your meditational writing...
