Only a song

Listen to the morning lark
Whistling in the deepest dark.
Only a song,
but it's straight from the heart.
Daylight arrives. Sun must've heard.
So much power for one little bird.
Only a song,
but it breaks through the dark.

I've seen some long nights linger on,
I wonder, can I last till dawn.
Only a song,
but it's straight from the heart.
I raise my voice to praise the One.
Next thing you know, here comes the sun
Only a song,
but it breaks through the dark.

Song of courage, song of grace,
Song of freedom, song of faith,
From the mountains to the sea
All God's children, you and me.
