For the Morning

He knows the forest floor
And the way that it moves
Like waves on the ocean
He rises with the sun
Just to see the light shine
On the path before him
And sometimes he feels like
He's walking on water

It's the miracle of day
And it beckons him to stay
And he says halleluiah
For the morning

When night is closing in
And he feels like a child
Backed into a corner
He can't communicate
With the weight that he has
Wrapped around his shoulders
And sometimes he feels like
He can't bare the darkness

But the miracle of day
Beckons him to stay
And he says
Halleluiah for the morning
Halleluiah for beginning again
Beginning again

It feels like life and death
Until he gets it off his chest
And he screams into the dark
The night won't take his heart
At those times he feels like
He's moving a mountain

It's the miracle of day
And it beckons him to stay
And he says halleluiah for the morning
Halleluiah for the morning
Halleluiah for beginning again
Beginning again

And sometimes he feels like he's walking on water
