God called
the light day,
& the darkness
He called night;
and there was
evening,
& there
was morning--the first day.
Genesis 1: 5
Where were you
when
I laid the earth's
foundation?
Tell me, if
you understand.
Who marked off
its dimensions?
Surely
you know!Who stretched a
measuring line
across it?
On what were
its footings set,
or Who laid
its cornerstone,
while the morning
stars
sang together
& all the angels
shouted for
joy?
Job 38: 4-7
Awake, my glory!
Awake, harp
and lyre!
I will awaken
the dawn.
I will give
thanks to You,
O Lord, among
the peoples;
I will sing
praises to You
among the nations.
Psalms 57: 8-9
This is the
day which
the Lord has
made!
Let us rejoice
and be glad in it!
Psalms 118:
24

It is
good to give thanks to the LORD
and to sing
praises to Your name,
O Most High;
to declare Your
lovingkindness
in the morning
and Your faithfulness
by night,
with the ten-stringed
lute
and with the
harp,
with resounding
music upon the lyre.
For You, O LORD,
have made me glad
by what You
have done,
I will sing
for joy
at the works
of Your hands.
How great are
Your works,
O LORD.
Psalms 92: 1-5
Let me hear
Thy lovingkindness
in the morning,
For I trust
in Thee.
Teach me the
way in which
I should walk,
For to Thee
I lift up my soul.

8
Satisfy us in
the morning with
Your lovingkindness,
that we may
sing for joy
and be glad
all our days.
Psalms 90: 14O

But the path
of the righteous
is like the
light of dawn,
that shines
brighter and
brighter until
the full day.
Proverbs 4:
18
Then your light
will
break out like
the dawn,
& your recovery
will speedily
spring forth;
& your righteousness
will go before
you;
the glory of
the LORD
will be your
rear guard.
Isaiah 58: 8
The Lord GOD
has given Me
the tongue of
disciples,
that I may know
how to sustain
the weary one
with a word.
He awakens Me
morning by morning,
He awakens My
ear to listen as a disciple.
Isaiah 50: 4
So let us know,
let us press on
to know the
LORD.
His going forth
is
as certain as
the dawn;
& He will
come to us like the rain,
like the spring
rain
watering the
earth.
Hosea 6: 3
