I like the sunrise â€~cause it brings a new day
I like a new day, it brings new hope they say
I like the sunrise blazing in the new sky
Nighttime is weary oh, and so am I
Every evening I wish upon a star
That my brand new bright tomorrow isn't very far
When the heavy blue curtain of night
Is raised up high clear out of sight
Then I like the sunrise, so heavenly to see
I like the sunrise, I hope it likes poor me
Don't worry about saving this music
Or be scared if the singing ends or the piano breaks a string
For we have fallen to a place where everything is music and singing
Everything is recovered and new, ever new and musical
And even if the whole world's harp should burn up
There would still be hidden there, the spirit of song there to linger on
And even if a candle's blown out by wind
The fire smolders on in an ember and then sparks again
The singing is a drop, just a drop in oceans of seas
Grace keeps it moving through bodies like these
And the sound of a life sends an echoing out
The poem sings willingly in each newborn's crying shout
But it's growing slowly and keeps many secrets
Stop the words and listen, feel the echo of it starting
Open a space in the center of your beating heart
And let spirits fly in and out
Every evening I wish upon a star
That my brand new bright tomorrow isn't very far
When the heavy blue curtain of the night
Is raised up high clear out of sight
Then I like the sunrise, so heavenly to see
I like the sunrise, the music in every sunrise
Makes a space inside the skies for setting free
I Like the Sunrise
