The morning I get up, wash my dread Feel the sun beating on my head I fix a cup of the Collie med Sip it up until my eyes get red Glorious day is upon us Let us meditate pon the chalice The sweet herb, good life I chant a song in the morning light CHORUS (2X) The first light of the morning The sun shining on my face I give thanks for the good bread Brand new day ahead Can't take this view from here for granted The hills filled with trees are enchanted We tilled the soil, we planted, At first light we watered and mended Now the Season has come The fruit is ripe in the garden People of community must unite We share this love morning noon and night CHORUS The sun shining on my face (repeats)
