To This Day

Oh, morning, we greet you

with open arms,

with open eyes

and ears

and hearts.

Oh, morning, we welcome you,

and all that may come,

all we may meet

in joy,

in fear,

in sorrow.

Oh, morning, let light shine

in the worn places of the earth,

in the wounded spaces of torn hearts,

in our eyes, our spirits, our lives.

Oh, morning,

let your light shine.
