“Morning Has Come”
by Jason Shelton
Morning has come,
arise and greet the day !
Dance with joy
and sing a song of gladness!
The light of hope here
shines upon each face.
May it bring faith
to guide or journey home.
A new day dawns,
once more the gift is giv'n.
Wonder fills this
moment shared together.
The light of peace here
shines upon each face.
May it bring faith
to guide our journey home.
Open our eyes
to see that life abounds;
open hearts
to welcome it among us.
The light of love here
shines upon each face.
May it bring faith
to guide your journey home.
“Woyaya”
transcribed from Ysaye M. Barnwell
We are going,
heaven knows where we are going,
but we know within.
And we will get there,
heaven knows how we will get there,
but we know we will.
It will be hard, we know,
and the road will be muddy and rough,
but we'll get there,
heaven knows how we will get there,
but we know we will.
Woyaya
