Morning has broken,

like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken,

like the first bird

Praise for the singing,

praise for the morning

Praise for the springing

fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new

fall, sunlit from heaven

Like the first dewfall,

on the first grass

Praise for the sweetness

of the wet garden

Sprung in completeness

where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight,

mine is the morning

Born of the one light, eden saw play

Praise with elation,

praise every morning

God's recreation of the new day

Morning has broken,

like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken,

like the first bird

Praise for the singing,

praise for the morning

Praise for the springing

fresh from the world
