Morning has broken like the first morning,
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Praise for them singing, praise for the morning,
Praise for them springing, fresh from the world.
After 1st verse: C, F, G, E, Am, G, C, G7sus4
Sweet the rain’s new fall sunlit from heaven,
Like the first dewall on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden,
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass.
After 2nd verse: C, F, G, E, Am, F#, Bm, G, D, A7/D, D
Mine is the sunlight ! Mine is the morning
Born on the one light Eden saw play !
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God’s recreation of the new day.
