a new day has begun
standing by the window
holding another cup of coffee
watching the blue sky
and feeling morrow breeze
fresh and cool upon my face
thanks God I'm alive
the more I thank you,
the more I feel I didn't
forgive us God for our human cruelty
you 've created everything beautiful
and keep giving us many blessings,
but we are still getting the best of
everything around us without remembering
how great you are.
forgive me God for not thanking you as well
I know of your mercy and forgiveness,
so I'm standing here praying,
asking you to accept me and purify my soul
I feel alone when I'm away
make me close to you
to feel inner peace
I know I always make mistakes
because I am a human,
but I also know of your mercy
so, forgive me God the most gracious, the most merciful.
