I Begin the Day

It’s thy aroma in cool breeze that wakes me up in the morning
It’s thy glorious rays of dawn, removes the darkness, enlighten my soul
It’s thy melodies, I hear through the chirping of a bird and her nestling
It’s the warmth of thy love in the rising sun opens my eyes
It’s the multiple bliss and grace thou sent through the lights from the skies

It’s the crystalline dews on the grass reminds me that you’re so caring 
I begin my day with a hope that all my stress of the day you’ll be sharing 
Throughout the day I may have to face failure criticism hurt feelings 
But I know you are there for me, all my distress you’ll be bearing 
At the end of the day I’ll take refuge in your arms.

As the whole nature with your praise begins the day
I rise from my bed joining my hands and closing my eyes to pray
I thank my savior as I breathe every single breath
By his grace I am hale and hearty, he keeps me away from ‘death’
Both my body and soul I surrender in your mighty hand.

It’s your voice that whispers, I can hear
Though it’s faint but I can hear it very clear
I can feel your tender touch on my shoulder
You comfort me with your faithful promise
That you’ll never forsake me but fill me with your heavenly bliss.
