(Verse One) I opened a gift this morning When I opened up my eyes I'm ready to count each blessing Oh it's good just to be alive Lord, it's good just to be alive
(Chorus) I won't take for granted this breath in my lungs I'll savor Your mercy with each rising sun I can't see the future, but I see enough To know I'm my Father's and I, I am loved
(Verse Two) When my heart is blinded by darkness Help me remember all You have done 'Cause You've been faithful, proven You're able To send the shadows on the run I'll watch them scatter when morning comes
Chorus
(BRIDGE:) This is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice, I will rejoice The Maker of mornings, He knows my name He is my joy, my joy (x2)
