The first rays of light arrive with a promise
The morning dew melts away like parting tears of the dark night
When I wake into this glorious day, I pray to Thy
Let everyone wake as happy as I..
Everyday I live upon this earth You hold so dear
I thank You with all my heart for I know I am blessed to be.
Great One who watches upon,
Hills and valleys plains and dunes
Over the might ocean and the trickling streams
I Pray to Thy to keep me just
And wise enough to hold an aching hand..
I thank Thee for everything
And pray to Thy for hope and life
May your glorious mercy fall upon
My brothers in need and those in tears....
