  • The Morning Side Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Steve Winwood

    Winwood/Jennings

    You meet every kind of person moving toward the morning side
    You see the good and the bad, the eyes are sad
    You play every midnight gambler before you see the light
    On the morning side, the morning side

    You feel every heat and passion moving towards the morning side
    To earn one more second chance, you learn the dance
    When you finally climb the mountain, you see the other side
    It’s the morning side, the morning side

    Now my life has changed and now my eyes can see
    Now I’m living on the morning side
    Now I’m letting all the sunlight into me
    Now I’m free

    And I know I’ll never pass that way again
    That dark journey to the morning side
    On the morning side I feel my life begin
    Let’s begin

  • Morning Has Broken

    Words That Motivate

    As Sung by Cat Stevens

    lyrics by Eleanor Farjeon

    Morning has broken, like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for the springing fresh from the word

    Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heaven
    Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
    Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
    Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

    Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
    Born of the one light, Eden saw play
    Praise with elation, praise every morning
    God’s recreation of the new day

  • Fireflies

    By Rabindranath Tagore

    I touch God in my song
    as the hill touches the far-away sea
    with its waterfall.
    The butterfly counts not months but moments,
    and has time enough.

    Let my love, like sunlight, surround you
    and yet give you illumined freedom.

    Love remains a secret even when spoken,
    for only a lover truly knows that he is loved.

    Emancipation from the bondage of the soil
    is no freedom for the tree.

    In love I pay my endless debt to thee
    for what thou art.
