Song Lyrics

"Early In The Morning"

by David Meece
Album: Once In A Lifetime

Once a good, young king came by
Early in the morning
Hope soared, nearly to the sky
Early in the morning

Yet that first hope nearly died
With so little warning
The good, young king was crucified
Early in the morning

In the stone-cold tomb he lay
Early in the morning
Laid with him the hope of day
Early in the morning

Saints and angels fearful, pray
Yearning for a dawning
Breaking on the silent grave
Early in the morning

Hallelujah, oh, the bright dawn breaks
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, oh, the sweet king wakes
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Long the anxious claws had gripped
Early in the morning
Now vanquished claws have slipped
Early in the morning

Now the bragging dragon trips
Head, so high, now fawning
Mouth, denied, forever drips
Early in the morning

Hallelujah, empty claws proclaim
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, now the good king reigns
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Steady in the waning night
Early in the morning
Risen morning star: our light
Early in the morning

Dragons breed again, to fight
Fearful is their taunting
Yet, we trust, Lord, thy great might
Early in the morning

Hallelujah, saints and angels sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, praise the risen king
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, saints and angels sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, praise the risen king
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, saints and angels sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, praise the risen king
Hallelujah, hallelujah
