With each dawning day
Brave and bold new arrivals
Fill the landscape of possibilities
To one with eyes open
Let us look to the bright heavens
Pray to the Maker of all
Live in hope for blessings, great
Satisfied by the falling manna
Yesterday’s perilous rapids
Waterfalls of treacherous fear
Are but distant memories
As we drift in the wide river
This valley of awakening
Filled by a rising sun
Heals the weary souls
Where God above is found
