A New Day


Warmth on my shoulder from the sun
Vanquishing shadows of the night
With that, a new day has begun
Promising new hours glowing bright

Will yesterday's faults be made right,
Or will they still remain undone?
Chance will turn on redemption's plight,
Warmth on my shoulder from the sun.

Hope lays within a new day won,
That grows a healthy appetite.
For there's another race to run,
Vanquishing shadows of the night.

Once more victory seems in sight,
I stand the mark at starting gun.
Striving once more with all my might,
With that, a new day has begun.

For, as the Earth's surface is spun,
Rotation has turned dark to light,
Rising up a glowing beacon
Promising new hours shining bright

Feel the glow new chances invite.
Awaken! The sun has risen!
To bless you from morning's new height,
Warmth on my shoulder from the sun
