Lyrics

Daily, daily I surrender


Grace for today is all that I need


Surprised by a mercy that’s new every morning


Awaken my soul to sing


Oh awaken my soul to sing


 


I will trust where You lead


I will trust when I can’t see


Morning by morning


Great is Your faithfulness to me


 


I will trust with all my heart


You are good, You always are


Morning by morning


Great is Your faithfulness to me


 


Breath by breath overtaken by wonder


One step at a time when I’m overwhelmed


Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow


Awaken my soul to sing


Awaken my soul to sing


 


All fear be reminded


My future is secure


My Father has spoken


And He keeps His every word

Meaning & Inspiration

Morning By Morning is a prayer of daily surrender shaped by confidence in God’s steady mercy. Its opening lines limit attention to the grace needed for the present day, then answer anxiety with mercy that arrives afresh each morning. The refrain makes trust active: faith continues both when the path is visible and when it is not. God’s goodness and faithfulness, rather than changing circumstances, provide the basis for that trust.

The second movement narrows the pace to each breath and each step, an apt response to feeling overwhelmed. Its language of strength for today and hope for tomorrow joins present help with future security. Fear is addressed by recalling that the Father has spoken and keeps every word. The song therefore treats worship as remembrance as well as surrender. Its clearest biblical echo is Lamentations 3, where fresh morning mercies support a confession of great faithfulness. That connection gives the title and chorus a specific scriptural anchor without removing the song’s intimate prayerfulness.
