Song of the Morning

Song of the Morning

Verse 1:
Early in the morning, when the birds begin their song,
My heart will sing along for all the things You’ve done.
You saved me from my pride and gave me brand-new life;
Oh Lord, You’ve redeemed my soul — I’m safe by Your side.

Pre-Chorus:
I fall short of Your glory, yet I come to You, Most Holy.
You know all my story — You’re the One who saved me wholly.

Chorus:
O Most High, purify me with Your holy fire,
O Most High, take my heart — be glorified.
You’re my life — my soul’s one desire,
You’re my life — let Your love guard my heart.

Verse 2:
You are holy — let Your Spirit cleanse my thirst for all the world.
Jesus, hold me close; don’t let them take the best of me.
Father, shield me — let Your Spirit still my hunger for the world.
Jesus, hold me near; let me dwell within Your grace. Pre-Chorus + Chorus
