Sunrise

Sunrise

Up from the deep, a day is dawning,
Slowly rising, a day is dawning.                 

Up sleepy head, a day is dawning,
Up from the dead, a day is dawning.

Rays so bright, an affection of light,
With much might, oh what a sight.

Oh such splendor, one can hardly contain,
Upward, upward, over the plane.

Such beauty, such beauty, who can explain,
A burst of color, over His domain!
