Koryn Hawthorne - In The Morning Lyrics
Lyrics
Don't need no invitation
Come through when You're ready
You know You always welcome to stay here
Where You at
Sometimes, I'm impatient
Woo
But You ain't running late for no reason on me
I'm available night or day
When You swing by, have Your way
I don't even stress where You been
'Long as I see Your face every morning
That'll make my day
Might tell my home girls about You
But I don't really care what they think
Don't ever want to lose this feeling
That You always put inside of me
What You do for me is unforgettable
I wake up shaking my head in awe in every morning
What You do for me is unforgettable
You snatch my soul
You check up on me
So I'm never lonely
Man, I like how You work all the time
You know what's best for me
I'ma follow You when I speak my mind with You
I don't spend a dime
If I'm drenched in water, You keep me shining
Forever in my heart You'll be solid
I'm available night or day
When you swing by, have Your way
I don't even stress where You been
'Long as I see Your face every morning
That'll make my day
Might tell my home girls about You
But I don't really care what they think
Don't ever want to lose this feeling
That You always put inside of me
What You do for me is unforgettable
I wake up shaking my head in awe in every morning
What You do for me is unforgettable
You snatch my soul
What You do for me is unforgettable
I wake up shaking my head in awe in every morning
What You do for me is unforgettable
You snatch my soul
What You do for me is unforgettable
I wake up shaking my head in awe in every morning
What You do for me is unforgettable
You snatch my soul

In the Morning
Meaning & Inspiration
Koryn Hawthorne's "In The Morning," released on April 18, 2024, resonates as a profound declaration of unwavering faith and consistent divine presence. The song’s narrative artfully expresses an intimate relationship with God, moving beyond mere acknowledgment to a deep-seated reliance and joyous expectation of His daily faithfulness. From the outset, Hawthorne articulates a posture of openness and availability, echoing the sentiment found in Revelation 3:20: "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me." This welcoming spirit underscores the believer's constant invitation for God to inhabit every moment.
The lyrics beautifully capture the human experience of sometimes feeling impatient, yet simultaneously trusting in God’s perfect timing. This patience is rooted in the understanding that God's plan unfolds without unnecessary delay, aligning with Isaiah 40:31 which promises renewal and strength for those who wait on the Lord: "but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." The recurring assurance, "I don't even stress where You been, 'Long as I see Your face every morning," speaks volumes about a trust that transcends the seen and temporal, focusing instead on the consistent, tangible presence of God in daily life. This echoes the nourishment found in seeking God’s presence daily, much like the manna provided in the wilderness, which was to be gathered each morning (Exodus 16).
Hawthorne’s assertion that seeing God's "face" makes her day is a powerful metaphor for experiencing His favor and guidance. This sentiment is deeply connected to Psalm 4:6, which speaks of the joy that comes from God's countenance being lifted upon us: "Many say, 'Who will show us some good? Lift up the light of your face upon us, O Lord!'" The song’s exploration of God’s transformative work within her, stating "What You do for me is unforgettable" and that He "snatch[es] my soul," directly reflects the psalmist’s awe at God’s redemptive power in Psalm 139: "For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." The repeated acknowledgment of God’s constant care, ensuring she is "never lonely," is a testament to the promise in Hebrews 13:5: "For he has said, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you.'" This unwavering support fosters a boldness to speak her mind and a recognition that God’s wisdom is supreme, as stated in Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." The imagery of being kept shining even when drenched in water speaks to enduring trials and finding God’s provision and protection amidst them, mirroring the promise of spiritual cleansing and renewed strength found in passages like Jeremiah 17:7-8. Ultimately, "In The Morning" is not just a song, but a vibrant testament to a living faith, celebrating the indelible, transformative, and eternally present love of God that illuminates every day.
