Dawn and dusk, the quiet times of day when we can put all our troubles, worries, chores aside for a few minutes and just be still. I love an early morning stroll, listening to the earth waking, watching the arrival of a new day and witnessing the presence of God in our midst…
IN QUIET TIME
Oh how blest each day is
in the early quiet time
just as morning is breaking
as the dawn starts to shine
above the mountains
and glitter through the leaves.
There is such a peaceful presence
while birds waking in the trees
begin to twitter, chirp
and there’s the slightest ripple of a breeze
that whispers of God’s love
as morning breaks, banishes night
and lights the skies above
in this quiet time of dawning
when God gives us a new day
as in the hush of early morning
the whole earth seems to pray.
Then all the birds start singing
with joy their songs of praise
to their God, their creator,
the same God in which I believe
as in this quiet time of early morning
His blessings I receive.
Oh how I love to walk and sit and listen
as morning begins to shine,
to spend time with my Lord and Savior
in this so special quiet time.
How glorious the dawning,
the gift of a new day
and with the birds all singing
my heart too lifts in songs of praise.
