Words: Eleanor Farjeon Traditional Gaelic Melody [Verse 1] C Dm G F G Morning has broken, like the first morning; Am G F C G Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird. C F C G Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning! C G F G C Praise for the springing fresh from the Word! [Verse 2] C Dm G F G Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven; Am G F C G Like the first dewfall, on the first grass. C F C G Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, C G F G C Sprung in completeness, where his feet pass. [Verse 3] C Dm G F G Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning; Am G F C G Born of the one light, Eden saw play. C F C G Praise with elation, praise every morning! C G F G C God's recre-a-tion of the new day!
