There's Something About Morning (Makes Us Glad)

  Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; 
‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song;
 He also has become my salvation.’ ”
Isa.12:2







For all the fear and trouble that nobody can escape
There’s something about morning as we see it taking shape
That makes us feel like favourites of He who grants its grace
And stirs a hymn within the heart and smile upon the face

For all the hurt and heartache that still waits to test time’s cast
There’s something about morning as it hoists its glorious mast
That makes us feel like heirs of so much more than we deserve
As God so rich in mercy showers earth with light and love

For all the ways that we could count to crumble in despair
There’s something about morning that evokes a humble prayer
Where Hope hails to the masses to trust and not be afraid
And to rejoice in this; the day that our Lord has made

There’s something about whispers escalating to hurrah
As we, the beneficiaries of Beauty gape in awe
While He who Was, IS and Will BE flings gleaming gates ajar
Where something about morning makes us glad right where we are

....glad to be (however teeny) a part of something grand 
The Workmanship and worshiper of He, First in Command
That suddenly makes sacred the Dusk toward which we strive
Where something about morning makes us glad to be alive
