Early morning rise n' shine I don't wanna wake up this time But I open up my eyes To greet the day Stretch my arms And I scratch my head Leave the comfort of my cozy bed Wish I was movin' in reverse instead But here I go again Barely time for the front page news A cup of coffee and I tie my shoes Racin' the clock but I always lose Here I go again Feels like I'm missing something I've taken care of all but one thing Gotta ask my Lord Ask my Savior Keep an eye on my behavior I need His light in me to shine Every step of the way Gotta ask my Comfort, my Shelter Help me play the hand I'm dealt And let His light within me shine Every step of the way Every day I go through the motions I entertain this crazy notion That I can swim this life's great ocean All alone I look around, no land in sight The raging current Too much to fight Times are hard and money's tight And here I go again I know He's always near me And I know He's always gonna hear me Ask my Lord Ask my Savior Keep an eye on my behavior I need His light in me to shine Every step of the way Gotta ask my Comfort, my Shelter Help me play the hand I'm dealt And let His light within me shine Every step of the way Gotta ask my Lord Ask my Savior Keep an eye on my behavior I need His light in me to shine Every step of the way Gotta ask my Comfort, my Shelter Help me play the hand I'm dealt And let His light within me shine Every step of the way Every step of the way Early morning, rise n' shine I don't wanna wake up this time But I open up my eyes To greet the day
