Lift high your arms in glory as your head bows full with prayer
Sing in choral hymns magnificent
The ceremony of dawning morning affirms
Love poses not as rich or poor
Nor starved with hunger nor filled with riches
Love poses not in splendor nor does it pose as weak
Love the teacher
Blind to human superiority
That some are enhanced or some less significant
The refusal to think love is as such
Raises the soul in beauty
Arching upward to true rapture
The morning rises through the sun and makes no thought of whom to favor
The birds sing giving pleasure to all
A secretive concert for no one
In a crowd we kneel and rock to prayers that must renew each day
The simple message love provides
Why do we make complex
Lift high your arms in glory as your head bows full with prayer
Sing choral hymns magnificent
The ceremony of dawning morning affirms
The road you travel through the day
The love you give or make absent
Reveals the core of who you are

The day has begun as dawn, the light of God fills my heart
With every breath of air such a great way for the day to
Does not every morning
resurrect the sun?
The hymns of birdsong
raise it from the grave
rolling away the tombstone
of darkness.
Mountain peaks bleed into the shadowed sky,
The only contrast is the stars, set so high.
At the tip of the day, light comes
by Gary Maclean
It’s early in the morn
The sun’s rays not yet trailing
The misty dark atmosphere
My eyesight near failing
I stumble
This morning I sit alone
Not in the Lord’s building
Among pews of worshipers
And alters where an educated man leads
