before the dreams have left my head

In the morning when I rise

Help me to prioritize

All the thoughts that fill my day

Before my schedule

Tells me that my day is full

Before I'm off and on my way

I want to praise you

I need to praise you

Let the first song that I sing

Be praises to my God and king

Before the curtains part

Before my day is starting

Before I make up the bed

Before the snooze alarm

Reminds me that it's morning

Before the dreams have left my head

I want to praise you

I need to praise you

Let the first song that I sing

Be praises to my God and king

I love the music of Sarah Groves.  Her lyrics, like those above from a song on her third album, All Right Here, often capture the cry of my heart.  Not only do I enjoy her refreshingly honest, poetic lyrics, I like the sound of her music too.  I can't wait to get her latest album into my ipod. ;)
