Lyrics
English

[Verse 1]

I have awakened in Your likeness

The image that was there from the start

Morning Star, Your brightness declares

My horizon, my future, my heart

[Chorus]

Morning Star rising within me

The light that was hidden now I see

I am the dawn, the breaking day

Christ in me, the hope, the way

Rising, rising, morning star

Showing me exactly who we are

[Verse 2]

Not something I must strive to become

But the truth of what I've always been

The Christ that lives and moves and breathes

The glory shining from within

[Bridge]

As He is, so am I in this world

Not someday when this life's unfurled

But now, today, in every breath

Life swallowing up death

[Chorus]

Morning Star rising within me

The light that was hidden now I see

I am the dawn, the breaking day

Christ in me, the hope, the way

Rising, rising, morning star

Showing me exactly who we are

Morning Star rising within me

The light that was hidden now I see

I am the dawn, the breaking day

Christ in me, the hope, the way

Rising, rising, morning star

Showing me exactly who we are

Morning Star rising within me

The light that was hidden now I see

I am the dawn, the breaking day

Christ in me, the hope, the way

Rising, rising, morning star

Showing me exactly who we are

Neo-soul, jazz fusion Serialism.
