Step Into Morning

The night was long

But it did not learn how to keep the sun away

I walked through hours without an answer

Held my breath through heavy rain

Thought the dark had closed around me

Thought tomorrow lost my name

Then a silver line appeared

At the far edge of the sky

Not enough to show the whole road

Just enough to help me try

I do not need the whole map

I only need the next true step

Morning knows my name

Calls me through the rain Every dark horizon Has a line of

gold to claim

I survived the night

Now I’m walking into light Hope remembers who I am Morning knows

my name

Call me forward Call me brave

Morning knows my name

(ooh-ooh) I stopped asking for a miracle

That would fix the world at once

I began with water,

breathing And one call to someone I trust

Healing did not move in thunder It arrived in quiet ways

A meal, a walk,

a truthful conversation A little strength returning every day

I do not need the whole map I only

need the next true step

Morning knows my name

Calls me through the rain

Every dark horizon

Has a line of gold to claim

I survived the night

Now I’m walking into light Hope remembers who I am

Morning knows my name

I am still here

I am still worthy

I can begin again

I can ask for help

I can rest and rise

I can let the daylight in

Morning knows our names

Calls us through the rain

Every dark horizon

Has a line of gold to claim

We survived the night Now we’re walking into light

Hope remembers who we are

Morning knows our names

The night was long

But morning

remembered me
