I want to say, "Good morning,"
I’ve come to say, "Good day,"
I’m here to say, "I love You,
Today more than yesterday."
I need Your love this morning,
I need Your light today,
I need Your voice to guide me,
Today more than yesterday.
If I don’t start my day with Your loving face,
If I run ahead in haste,
Then all that’s beautiful seems to slip away,
And I’m left with sorrow in its place.
So, I need Your gentle wisdom,
I need to see my way
I need the fog to vanish,
Today more than yesterday.
I feel Your love surround me,
I feel Your warmth today,
I feel Your arms around me
Today more than yesterday.
Each time I start my day with Your loving face,
When I lift my heart in praise,
Then all that’s beautiful seems to come my way,
And I find that gladness fills my day.
So, I need You here beside me,
I need Your kiss today,
I need Your voice inside me
Today more than yesterday.
Your love is like the breath of springtime
That warms the Earth & melts the snows,
Calling all life from its deep slumber
Out to the light & warmth of love,
and even so …
I must have Your love this morning,
I long for Your light today,
I need Your joy within me
Today more than yesterday,
Oh, way more than yesterday.
[I need You] today more than yesterday.
His daughter had died and all hope was gone
It seemed Jesus waited just a bit too long
But when it seemed that things had all gone wrong
Jesus went on and He gave them a song
Always trust in Jesus and He'll give you a song
Even when everything has all gone wrong
Just when it seems this time He's left you down
Always trust in Jesus and He'll give you a song
The winds and the waves were raging all around
Jesus was sleeping and the boat was going down
But when it seemed Jesus slept too long
OH He arose and He gave them a song
You look at your life and it's all broken down
You wonder why Jesus has waited so long
Keep trusting Him though everything seems wrong
Jesus will come and He'll give you a song
We pray for blessings, we pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things
chorus
Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near?
What if trials of this life
Are Your mercies in disguise?
We pray for wisdom, Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
And all the while You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe (repeat chorus)
When friends betray us, when darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It's not our home (repeat chorus)
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst
This world can’t satisfy?
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise?
