IF ONLY MORNINGS WERE ALL DAY

If only mornings were all day
Wouldn’t it be sublime,
If those early tranquil hours
Were given extended time?
This was a thought that came to mind
While sitting by the shore,
Communing with my Savior
The one that I adore.
Even Jesus rose quite early
In the wee hours of the day,
To fellowship with the Father
And to watch and pray.
Oh theses consecrated hours
When His still small voice I hear,
Serenaded by melodious notes
Of the Robin’s cheer.
I am strengthened in the inward man
As I digest His written Word,
I am encouraged and refreshened
My spirit is greatly stirred...
So much that the morning time
Stays with me all day long,
For the same Lord at noon and sunset
Is the same Lord I met at dawn.
