Morning has Broken

Morning has broken, like the first morning,
Blue-bird has spoken, like the first bird.
Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning!
Praise for them springing, fresh from the Word!

Sweet the rain's new fall, sun-lit from heaven,
Like the first dew-fall, on the first grass,
Praise for the sweetness, of the new Garden,
Sprung in completeness, where His feet pass.

Jesus has spoken, like the first morning,
New life has woken, brought by the Word;
Praise for communion, praise for the Cov'nant,
Praise we do offer, our precious Lord!

Ours is the sunlight, ours is the morning.
Born of the True Light, Eden saw play,
Praise, adoration, praise ev'ry morning,
For God's new creation, and the new day!
