Lord the first gift I see of this day
Is the darkness of the sky lifting away,
As the darkness melds into a charcoal gray.
The singing of birds in unison for Thee,
Is like a chorus of angels perched in the tree.
The tree once hidden in the darkness of night
Now shows its silhouette to me.
As the sky transforms in heavenly delight
I sit in love of Thee.
The fish in my pond break water to see
The Glory of God in the brightening sky.
The night animals return to their hiding place,
And close their eyes to your loving grace.
In harmony of this magnificent morn
I pray in homage and give thanks for this day.
Within the essence of your divinity
I am delighted by Thee.
