There's A Song In My Heart
Early in the morning before I start my day
I wake up with a song, and it makes me want to pray
Do you have songs in your heart that make you want to sing?
Go ahead and do it,…make music for our King!
Sometimes it’s just a chorus or just a line or two
Of a favorite Hymn or Praise Song we sing on Sunday too
No matter where it came from, it’s right there in my heart
Wanting me to sing it before my morning starts
I let my lips proclaim Him and the notes just start to fly
Sometimes the words are moving, and make me want to cry
Sometimes they’re bright and cheery
Sometimes they’re kind of sad
But the message they contain will make my Savior glad
Glad that I am singing before the day can start, praising my Dear Savior,…singing in my heart
If to you this doesn’t happen,…stop and ponder,…reason why
Don’t you love Him and adore Him?…Let your mouth sing your heart’s cry
As soon as eyes are open,…thank Him for the brand new day
Sing a song of praise and worship Him in this unusual way
Don’t wait for Sunday’s service to express those feelings deep
Just start a morning habit and soon it’s yours to keep
My husband does it also,…wakes with a song in heart
And then he shares it with me and we let the praises start
It’s just something that He gives us,…you can have the blessing too
Wake up with a song in your heart and let the praise flow forth from you!
