Morning Song

My soul, my soul waits for the Lord

More than watchmen wait for the dawn

Lord, open my eyes that I may behold

Your radiance till the darkness is gone

Morning by morning you awaken;

You awaken my ear to hear

Like a lamp shining forth in the darkness,

Until the dawning day draws near

The morning star rises in your hearts,

Though tears may tarry for the night,

When the morning star rises in your hearts,

Then joy comes with the morning light.

The steadfast love of the Lord never ends

His mercies shall never cease

His mercies are new every morning;

Great is His faithfulness.

And I will sing of your strength as I rise

For you have been to me a fortress

In the morning I’ll sing of your steadfast love

My refuge in my day of distress.

The morning star rises in your hearts,

Though tears may remain for the night,

When the morning star rises in your hearts,

Then joy comes with the morning light.

Meet us in the morning with your steadfast love

In your glorious light we’ll abide

That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

And our souls will be satisfied
