after the morning comes

after the morning comes
we will have hope
after this long night
daylight will come
we won't remember
the words that we spoke
when the new day has begun

after the morning comes
we will still dream
giggling like children
on Christmas morn
we will join in
with the other human beings
thankful and grateful
just for being born

          God grant me patience
          this waiting is rough
          please give me hope
          I pray it's enough

after the morning comes
we will be safe
no longer a burden
weighing down our souls
after the morning comes
it will all be okay
there will be peace
for us creatures below
