Morning Has Broken

Oh yes,

Say it now

Morning has broken,

Like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken,

Like the first bird

Praise for the singing,

Praise for the morning

Praise for them springing

Fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall,

Sunlit from heaven

Like the first dewfall,

On the first grass

Praise for the sweetness

Of the wet garden

Sprung in completeness

Where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight,

Mine is the morning

Born of the one light,

Eden saw play

Praise with elation,

Praise every morning

God's re-creation

Of the new day
