In The Morning
Bill & Gloria Gaither Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the morning the sun's gonna shine
In the morning no clouds in the sky
When it's dark in your light just wait for the
daylight
Someone tell me what's wrong
Why my nights last so long
You can hear me
Then you give me a sign
That You heard me pray
You let me know
This dark night won't last always
In the morning you'll be alright
In the morning the sun's gonna shine
In the morning no clouds in the sky
When it's dark in your light just wait for the
daylight
So many ups and downs
You don't know where to start
So many nights you cried
Life was breakin' your heart
It may seem real hard
Ain't no help in sight
But don't you worry
About it tonight `cause
In the morning you'll be alright
In the morning the sun's gonna shine
In the morning no clouds in the sky
When it's dark in your light just wait for the
daylight
There's gonna be a day
It's gonna get cloudy
You can't see clear {You can't see clearly, no}
But don't you stop prayin'
Prayin' for the day
When the sun will shine (Shine) again
The lyrics describe a message of hope and encouragement for anyone going through a difficult time. The singer reassures the listener that no matter how dark the night may seem, in the morning everything will be alright. The morning symbolizes a fresh start, a new beginning where the sun shines brightly and there are no clouds in the sky, reflecting a sense of clarity and positivity after a period of darkness and uncertainty. The repeated emphasis on waiting for daylight signifies patience and the belief that better times are ahead.
The lyrics express a sense of vulnerability and loneliness, as the singer questions why their nights seem so long and unbearable. They feel like their prayers may not be heard and struggle to maintain faith in the midst of challenges. However, there is a shift in the narrative as the singer acknowledges a sign from a higher power that their prayers have been heard, instilling a sense of reassurance that the darkness will not last forever. This serves as a reminder to trust in the unseen and have faith that things will improve.
The song acknowledges the rollercoaster of emotions that come with life's ups and downs, the moments of confusion and heartache that can leave one feeling lost and overwhelmed. Despite the difficulties and tears shed along the way, the lyrics offer a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is a promise of a brighter day ahead. The message is one of perseverance and resilience, encouraging the listener to hold onto hope even when it feels like there is no end in sight.
The final verses of the song continue to reinforce the theme of holding onto hope and faith during challenging times. The lyrics acknowledge that there will be cloudy days and moments when clarity is hard to come by, but the key is to not give up and to keep praying for the light to shine again. The repetition of the promise that in the morning everything will be alright serves as a beacon of hope and a reminder to keep trusting in the process, knowing that brighter days are on the horizon.
