Out my window I watch the sunrise
For nothing has ever touched my heart
Like the beauty of a 'morning sky.'
For the sky lights up with colors
Against a background of the softest blue
And it's this gentle, peaceful, loveliness
That keeps me focused, strong, and true.
For the beauty of the morning sky
Is my message from God above
That even through this hard trial of life
He has not withheld his love.
Then when I was tired of being so all alone
And prayed for my life on earth to be through
God, once again, showed his love for me
And filled my lonely heart with you.
And I thank God each and every day
In my prayers and while saying grace
For always being there to console me
And protecting me with His embrace.
And I thank Him for my 'special morning sky'
And for her gentle and loving ways
For it's my thoughts of her, 'that make me smile'
Even in these dark and gloomy days.
"I love you, My Morning Sky."
