As I wake up in the morning
And the sun is breaking through
I sit in awesome wonder
At the good things that you do
You fill the air with sunshine
You bring the evening rain
You light the stars at night
And then you bring the sun again
You start the birds a chirping
In the early morning light
And as sunset rolls along
You give them sleep into the night
The animals all trust you
To provide their daily care
They go about their daily tasks
And know you’re always there
The trees uplift their branches
In praises unto you
They know their source of life
And they give praise where it’s due
All of His creation
Is a song of simple praise
I think I’ll try to be the same
When I proclaim His name
No more murmuring or whining
No more wishing there was more
No more wondering if He hears me
No more doubting His dear word
No more thinking it is my time
No more sulking in my woes
No more worries in my trials
No more angry at my foes
If nature can just praise Him
For the good things that He gives
Why should I be any different
In the praise that I uplift
