I take in the cool air of the early morning
I’m reminded of life’s preciousness
My spirit rises with expectation
Of what’s in store for the new day
For I remember a time
When waking up in the morning
Was such a loathsome task
My spirit was weighed down as I asked
Would I, could I make it through the day?
But now I sing of your goodness
For you kept me through those dark times
When friends had turned away and I was alone
It was your promises that kept me alive
Your word like honey gave me strength and comfort
How can I not thank you Lord?
How can I not love you, my God?
For you’re better than gold or silver
Better than all the good things of the world
