The Dayspring on High
"Because of our God’s tender mercy
the dawn will break upon us from on high
to give light to those who sit in darkness..."
Luke 1:77-79
When morning breaks in upon my bed
banishing fear and dismissing dread,
its welcome thoughts stir this sleepy head
to speak and move trusting God instead.
Summoning strength that daybreak supplies,
visions of adventure fill my eyes.
Hope-filled words cheer me, "Look to the skies!"
and I give thanks to God as I rise.
You've heard petitions I pray each night;
my Savior, You've dawned with strength and light.
I love you Lord with mind, heart and might
and trust you, God, for today's insight.
