I woke up this morning and at breakfast wondered
Of how you were feeling or where you are
I just want to share the gift of His Spirit, His love
And tell you that He is near
Though love seems very far
I woke up this morning and wanted you to know
That though I'm not there, you do not walk alone
For though I cannot be there, I can still pray
For your Father is beside you
And He will lead the way
His power and His blessings
Are not made or based solely on feelings
Faith is confessing to what is true and right
Though you don't understand
Though there is no light
I am waking up this morning
And I want to make the most of this moment
To remind that He delights in you
You are His Child; you are His Chosen
In His Spirit, I want to give you what I can
To live and remind you that you are His treasure
He is faithful; His grace shall uplift you to stand
Pressed down, running over, and shaken together
Though I am far and cannot be there beside
The fellowship of His love spans the divide
Though you may not know where you are
I want to tell you: He is near
His salvation, never far
I know that each new day
Seems like one, repeated road
And He is the Father who is faithful
And He already carries your load
Accept the yoke He gives
For His burden is easy and His yoke, light
Though you die, you shall live
When you believe that Jesus is the Christ
The One who will save you
He will be your Shield and Comfort in grief
And will cause you to rise
Arise you, dead! And awake, you who sleep!
And He will give you light!
In grief, I often stare
At His closed doors
And I remember in familiarity
That He has walked here before
Rest in His love and cling to His hope
He will surround you with His tender arms
As His child, He will guide you down this road
Sustain to keep you from all harm
Though you stumble
He rewards the humble
His promises show
That you are not alone
Whether in joy or in pain
He remains the same
I woke up this morning
Regretful I could not be there
Yet He knows and is fulfilling
Your every cry and prayer
Though your joy seems dry
His Spirit is very much alive
His Word, test and try
Faithful, you will find
And that He is true
And He is right there, beside
You
