Morning
Morgan Harper Nichols Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I made a mess of my yesterday. I gave it my best and still made mistakes. But praise
God for mercy. It's new everyday. And I know that You're with me cause I'm not afraid
Of tomorrow.
I'm waking up. It's finally morning. While I've been asleep You've been restoring.
All of my joy, my dreams now I can see the sunrise. Praise God for the morning
Here's to a blank slate washed in the blood. And here's to the sunrise waking me
Up. Your calm and Your peace surrounding me and You are my freedom eternally.
This mourning will turn into dancing I know. Redemption is moving and healing my
Soul. The dark of the night well it has no control. Your love is alive I know.





Overall Meaning

The lyrics are from Morgan Harper Nichols's song "Morning" and it talks about accepting the mistakes we made in the past and seeking redemption with the help of God. The first verse highlights the struggles of yesterday, the mistakes that were made, but instead of dwelling on it, the singer is grateful for the forgiveness and mercy of the Lord, which makes it possible to have a fresh start every day. The singer draws strength from the knowledge that God is with her every step of the way, and as such, there is no fear of what the future holds.


The second verse talks about waking up to a new day, realizing that while the singer was asleep, God was working behind the scenes to restore her joy and dreams. The sunrise represents a new beginning, a chance to start again, to focus on the positives and let go of the negatives. The singer acknowledges that it is only through the sacrifice of Jesus that she can start afresh with a clean slate. The chorus affirms the singer's gratitude for the opportunity to start anew and the peace of mind that comes with surrendering to the will of God. The lyrics conclude by expressing the conviction that with God's love, healing is possible and, eventually, mourning turns to dancing.
