Morning Has Broken
Neil Diamond Lyrics

Morning has broken,
The morning has come,

Like the first morning
Just like the first morning, as if it’s the beginning of the world,

Blackbird has spoken,
The first bird, a blackbird, has chirped,

Like the first bird
Just like the first bird of the day, it’s the start of a new era.

Praise for the singing,
Celebrate the sweet sound of the bird singing,

Praise for the morning
Celebrate the morning that brings new opportunities and beginnings,

Praise for them springing
Celebrate the way everything comes to life in the morning,

Fresh from the world
As if it's the first time, everything is bright and new.

Sweet the rain's new fall,
The new rain that falls is sweet and refreshing,

Sunlit from heaven
Shining down from the heavens above,

Like the first dewfall,
Just like the morning dew on the grass after a night's rest,

On the first grass
On the first blade of grass, a sign of newness and purity.

Praise for the sweetness
Celebrate the sweet scent of the dew on the grass,

Of the wet garden
In the rainy garden, everything is wet and new,

Sprung in completeness
Everything is bursting with life and perfection,

Where his feet pass
Wherever God's feet touch the ground, life springs forth.

Mine is the sunlight,
The sunlight belongs to me,

Mine is the morning
The morning is mine, to celebrate and to enjoy,

Born of the one light,
All light comes from one source, and that source creates the morning,

Eden saw play
Even the garden of Eden saw God at play in the morning light.

Praise with elation,
Praise with joy and excitement,

Praise every morning
Celebrate every morning, as it's the beginning of a new day's journey,

God's re-creation
God creates the world anew every day, and every morning is a chance to celebrate that.

Of the new day
Of this new day, full of possibilities and opportunities.
