I Woke Up This Morning

I woke up this morning
whether it's raining or pouring
above the storm clouds
the eagles are soaring
looking to the heavens above
waiting for unconditional love
and each and every day
if we get to say:
"I woke up this morning,"
we have a purpose to serve
with grace and mercy we may not deserve
but it is a gift from above
flight from a descending dove
we may be tired at times
with or without reasons or rhymes
but trudge on my friend
even when you cannot see the end
because you woke up this morning
