MORNING IS BREAKING

"Everything has beauty but
not everyone sees it."

IF THERE WERE NO CLOUDS
WOULD WE SEE AND FEEL THE SUN?

THE DAY EVER SO LONG
BRINGS AN EVENING SONG.

"Calamity has no voice;
Suffering can not speak."

"What soap is to the body,
Tears are to the soul."

No one says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night, who teaches us more than he teaches the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds in the sky?'
Job 35:10-11

MORNING HAS BROKEN - Cat Stevens (Lyrics)

Joy Comes with the Morning
Psalm 30
1 I will extol you, O Lord, for you have drawn me up
and have not let my foes rejoice over me.
2 O Lord my God, I CRIED TO YOU FOR HELP,
AND YOU HEALED ME.
3 O Lord, you have brought up my soul from Sheol;
YOU RESTORED ME TO LIFE from among those who go down to the pit.

4 Sing praises to the Lord, O you his saints,
and give thanks to his holy name.
5 For his anger is but for a moment,
and his favor is for a lifetime.
WEEPING MAY TARRY FOR THE NIGHT,
BUT JOY COMES WITH THE MORNING.

6 As for me, I said in my prosperity,
“I shall never be moved.”
7 BY YOUR FAVOR, O Lord,
you made my mountain stand strong;
you hid your face;
I was dismayed.

8 To you, O Lord, I cry,
and to the Lord I plead for mercy:
9 “What profit is there in my death,
if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise you?
Will it tell of your faithfulness?
10 Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!
O Lord, be my helper!”

11 YOU HAVE TURNED FOR ME MY MOURNING INTO DANCING;
YOU HAVE LOOSED MY SACKCLOTH
AND CLOTHED ME WITH GLADNESS.
12 THAT MY GLORY MAY SING YOUR PRAISE AND NOT BE SILENT.
O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
