I like waking up before the Sun
And waiting for Him to arise
A daily battle have I won
To feel His rays beam in my eyes
I eagerly prep my day before Him
I am ironing and cleaning and skating
I'd rather forsake sleep and arrange
Than to keep my Date awaiting
Quite a task it be to see You
Quite a task to stay still and wait
Quite a shame it would be without Him
Quite a blow when I am late
Everyday He shows up
Different times but He is there
Not a single day has passed
Where my Sun has not been here
To wake up and feel You on my skin
Makes my heart sing with cheer
To never worry or feel alone
Because my Sun is always near
Darkness is cold and consuming
Plans can sometimes go awry
But, when I remember that soon my Sun will shine
Happy tears only shall I cry
On the precipice of giving up
Riding the coattails of my fear
I remember my Sun and our promise
I remember He is near
Never has He failed me
Even if I can't see Him, He is there
And if I miss Him for a while
I'll touch my heart for He is here
And if one day I fail thee
And onto You my eyes fail to glance
You patiently await me
Every day is a new chance
