Good morning to you, Lord,
it's awfully good to see you;
you are shining bright above,
blazing in the heavens, blue.

I thank you for another day,
of life and precious living;
thank you for your mercy,
thank you for forgiving.

You are my morning coffee,
you are my welcomed friend;
knowing you stand with me,
until the final end.

I praise you in this poem,
I praise you in my prayer;
because you saved my life,
because you showed you care.

I offer up these meager words,
accept them, if you will;
the prayer and praise to you,
when my restless heart is still.
