# When the Morning Comes [INTRO | QUIET AND TENDER | FEMALE SOLO | SOLO PIANO | VERY SPARSE | INTIMATE ROOM | PERIOD 1850s] [VERSE 1 | WEARY | FEMALE SOLO | SIMPLE PIANO CHORDS | SOFT | CLOSE AND WARM | OLD HYMΝ CHARACTER] When the night is long and lonely, And my heart has lost its song, When the road beneath my footsteps Feels too hard, and far too long, I will lift my eyes toward Heaven, Though I cannot see the way, For the hand that held me yesterday Will hold me through today. [CHORUS | HOPEFUL | FEMALE SOLO | FULLER PIANO | GENTLY BUILDING | WARM REVERB | HYMN-LIKE] When the morning comes, When the morning comes, I shall see the light again. Though the night be deep, And my sorrow steep, I shall rise and sing Amen. When the morning comes, When the morning comes, Every tear shall have an end. I will trust, I will pray, I will walk through the day, For my Lord is still my friend. [VERSE 2 | QUIET FAITH | FEMALE SOLO | PIANO ARPEGGIOS | MODERATE | INTIMATE | PERIOD HARMONY] There are times I walk in silence, There are prayers I cannot say, Yet I know the One who hears me Does not turn His face away. Like a candle in the darkness, Like a star above the sea, There is something burning softly, And that light still shines for me. [CHORUS | STRONGER | FEMALE SOLO | RICHER PIANO | EMOTIONAL LIFT | WARM ROOM | OLD GOSPEL HYMN] When the morning comes, When the morning comes, I shall see the light again. Though the night be deep, And my sorrow steep, I shall rise and sing Amen. When the morning comes, When the morning comes, Every tear shall have an end. I will trust, I will pray, I will walk through the day, For my Lord is still my friend. [BRIDGE | DEEPLY PERSONAL | FEMALE SOLO | PIANO ALMOST STOPS | VERY SOFT | CLOSE VOCAL | RAW AND HUMAN] And if I must wait till tomorrow, I will wait upon my knees. If I must walk through the valley, I will walk where He leads. For I have known the darkness, And I have known despair, But through the longest midnight I have found Him waiting there. [PIANO PAUSE] [FINAL CHORUS | TRIUMPHANT BUT DIGNIFIED | FEMALE SOLO | FULL PIANO | STRONGEST MOMENT | NATURAL ROOM REVERB | 1850s HYMN CLIMAX] When the morning comes, When the morning comes, I shall see the light again. Though the night be deep, And my sorrow steep, I shall rise and sing Amen. When the morning comes, When the morning comes, Every tear shall have an end. I will trust, I will pray, I will walk through the day, For my Lord is still my friend. [OUTRO | PEACEFUL | FEMALE SOLO | GENTLE PIANO | DECRESCENDO | FADE INTO ROOM | PERIOD HYMN] When the morning comes... I shall see the light... When the morning comes... I will sing... Amen.
