I rose before the dawn As Jesus did of long ago But I rolled away no rock Begging all my sins to go The chirpping of the birds Tends to let me know That soon the sun will come And the night will surely go But in the stillness Of my father's ways I am counting down the blessings Bestowed upon me today And as the coming light Lightens up my darkest days I find that eternal peace Has entered into my ways

I Rose
I rose before the dawn As Jesus did of long ago But I rolled away no rock Begging all my sins to go The chirpping of the birds Tends to let me know That soon the sun will come And the night will surely go But in the stillness Of my father's ways I am counting down the blessings Bestowed upon me today And as the coming light Lightens up my darkest days I find that eternal peace Has entered into my ways
