1. Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing,
Praise for the morning
Praise for them, springing
Fresh from the Word.

2. Sweet the rain's new fall
Sunlight from heaven,
Like the first dew fall on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness
Where His feet pass.

3. Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light Eden saw play!
Praise with elation,
Praise every morning,
God's re-creation of the new day.
