When Morning Comes

Mm. She got that scarf on her head And a brave little grin. I count her pills by the sink, Then I whisper, "Amen." The room smells like bleach and rain, But she still sings along. I hold her hand like a vow, Trying to stay strong. If you hear me, Lord, hear me now. I'm standing in the dark, But I won't bow. Every tear I give, Every trembling breath, I'm still here, God. I'm not done yet. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Love keeps running. When my faith gets small, You carry Us all. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. I watch the tubes and the charts, Try to name the truth. But her eyes lit up like she knew Something I couldn't prove. She said, "Daddy, don't be scared," Like she was teaching me How a broken heart can bend And still believe. If you hear me, Lord, hear me now. I'm standing in the dark, But I won't bow. Every tear I give. Hold Every trembling breath. Hold I'm still here, God. I'm not done yet. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Love keeps running. When my faith gets small, You carry us all. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. I wrestled with the ceiling. I shouted through the night. Why take the one thing That makes this house feel bright? Then she squeezed my fingers, and I heard it In my soul. Somewhere past the hurting, You are making us whole. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Love keeps running. When my faith gets small, You carry us all. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. If she goes before me. Let her go in grace. Hold on. If she stays right here. Hold Let me see Your face. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Morning's coming.
