I sit here communing,
With the Lord I love so much,
I glance out my window,
To see darkness I can touch.

I read the Word of God,
And to Him I am drawn;
Then another glance soon tells me,
Here comes the dawn.

Jesus and I watch the sunrise,
As I speak of disappointment and pain;
He tells me not to worry,
His closeness just to gain.

I thank Him for life's beauty,
In flowers, trees, butterflies and swans;
And in my heart I see it,
Here comes the dawn.

God's Word is filled with wisdom,
That is what I feed upon;
And as I soak it up,
Here comes the dawn.

It dawns on me I'm loved,
It dawns on me I'm saved;
It dawns on me He'll guide me,
To live life in His way.
