"Arise"

Stars go down in the western sky
The light fades in as the darkness dies
Sunlight, sweet sunlight
Brings the day that You’ve created
Perfect remedy
For all that tears at me
Arise, arise with the morning
Arise, your mercies are new
Arise, arise with the morning
That finds me running back to you
Darkness comes and covers all my faults
Tears fall down, sting my wounds like salt
Hopes fade, till I’m caught
In the day that you’ve created
I’m anxiously waiting
Redemption is brimming
With stories created
Each new day
I know you are coming
