First Song That I Sing

Here's a shout out to my friend Kim. We talked today about how we need to focus on the Lord before we even get out of bed and it made me think of this song by Sara Groves. Maybe my computer savvy husband will add a link later.

First Song That I Sing

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

Before my feet hit the floor
I'll praise you Lord, I'll praise you Lord
Before I fill my cup I'll lift you up, I'll lift you up
Before I start my day I'll sing your praise, I'll sing your praise

Before I start my car
Before I get too far
I want to praise you
I need to praise you Lord
Let the first song that I sing Be praise to my God and king
