The sunlight glitters through the curtain Creating small beams of soft light As we sit eating at the dining room table A breakfast of eggs, bacon and pancakes The morning scents are fresh and sharp Bacon and coffee and orange juice With a scent of soap from the showers We’ve all just had before gathering After breakfast, we all start toward the door Ready to be on our way, where we’re going To school, work, office… wherever we go There are always these gifts to go with us Gifts of sharing in the warmth of the sun As it drifts through the details of a curtain Gifts of sharing the morning delights With assurance we’re filled with goodness Gifts of sharing a morning prayer at the table Whispered softly and thanking God above For all the sweet joys we’re sharing together Joys of gentle faith, great hope and sweetest love
