Morning Has Broken

Morning Has Broken


Morning has broken like the first morning
Black bird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing
fresh from the world Sweet the rain's new
fall sunlit from heaven Like the first dewfall
on the first grass Praise for the sweetness
of the wet garden Sprung in completeness
where his feet pass Mine is the sunlight
Mine is the morning Born of the one light
Eden saw play Praise with elation
Praise ev'ry morning God's recreation
of the new day Morning has broken
like the first morning Black bird has spoken
like the first bird Praise for the singing
Praise for the morning Praise for them
springing fresh from the world
