Every morning when I wake up,
I will start the day with You.
'Cause to start the day without You
Is impossible to do.

When I think what You have done
How You died and overcome.
Is there any reason not to believe
That You are God's own Son?

(Chorus)
I know that You are near,
You make things always clear.
Your Grace is all I need,
I bow here at Your feet.

Every day here in my hometown
I tell the people to believe
In a friend who never leaves them,
And with open arms receive.

Let me tell You dearest Jesus
You pick me up when I'm feeling blue.
Lord I love You with my whole heart
And find myself in You.

(Chorus)
I know that You are near,
You make things always clear.
Your Grace is all I need,
I bow here at Your feet.

Every morning when I wake up,
I will start the day with You.
'Cause to start the day without You
Is impossible to do.

I Love You.

I just listened and this song brings your heart (as deceitful as it is) to just know that He lives. It opens my heart to love him because truly I do. Thank you so very much for putting that to words and music. I pray God bless you every day Thru that song it also shows how much you love Him.

This song has really grown on me. It's such a beautiful song and I love starting the day off listening to it (and of course I have to sing-a-long with it). The chorus is absolutely heart embracing to me... Oh what a beautiful song! Thank you and God bless!
