Centering Text in Middle of Div

Question

I'm trying to center a time inside a div. I know I am controlling it with inline css. Can do either I suppose.

Basically just trying to align text align in middle of div - vertical-align: middle; - did not work. Image is current look - u can see it is off...

current look

Thoughts?

  <div style="top: 50%; position: relative; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; color: green; height: 30px; border-top:1px solid ##000;">
  7:45 am
  </div>

Add line-height style equal to height:

div {
  font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; 
  color: green; 
  height: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
  border:1px solid #000;
  text-align: center;
  width: 100px;
}

<div>7:45 am</div>
