Alone with God in the morning,
I find my soul is at peace.
My heart, refreshed in the dawning,
My cares and clamourings cease.
He comes, with calmness and quiet.
I come, in need of His grace.
My thoughts, in turmoil and riot,
Subside, when viewing His face.
Sweet time to spend with my Saviour!
My King, my Shepherd, my Friend.
His presence soothes my behaviour,
My heart, with His heart to blend.
Alone with God in the Morning!
New strength to gain for the day.
My heart, refreshed in the dawning,
His grace shall cover my way.
