As I look at the rising sun

I thank God for the day

I cherish it in every way

I prepare of a journey

Meant for me only

I never know what I’ll find

Prayer gives me peace of mind

I encounter many lessons

Which I turn into confessions

The journey fills my soul

God’s love makes me whole

I stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

The journey is my destiny

It brings out the best in me

The scars I don’t hide

I wear them with pride

God knows what I go through

It doesn’t change my point of view

As the rising sun beams

I look at my dreams

I hold them close

They mean more than most

Then I know life has just begun

As I look at the rising sun
