Before the sun begins to rise
I open up my waking eyes
And turn my early thoughts to You
To find a grace that's fresh and new
Listen to my voice, oh Lord
Hear the prayers that I outpour
I lay them down before Your throne
And trust I'm never on my own
ChorusEach morning I bring my requests to You
Trusting the promises You will keep true
I look to the heavens, I watch and I pray
Waiting expectantly for what You'll do today
Oh, I wait expectantly
Verse 2You made me with a unique design
A thoughtful spirit, a joyful mind
You gave me laughter to share with a friend
And love for others that will not end
Take this sweet heart I have to give
And let it guide the way I live
I pour it out like morning dew
Just to be a reflection of You
ChorusEach morning I bring my requests to You
Trusting the promises You will keep true
I look to the heavens, I watch and I pray
Waiting expectantly for what You'll do today
Oh, I wait expectantly
BridgeUse my humor, use my care
To show Your goodness everywhere
When I am laughing or when I am still
I seek Your presence, I seek Your will
I'm lifting my hands in the early light
Walking by faith and not by sight
Final ChorusEach morning I bring my requests to You
Trusting the promises You will keep true
I look to the heavens, I watch and I pray
Waiting expectantly for what You'll do today
Yes, I wait expectantly
Lord, I wait expectantly
