Woke up this morning with this song on my mind…I give you the lyrics and an awesome video below.

As Sung by Cat Stevens
lyrics by Eleanor Farjeon

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 word

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
