the sun is rising in the sky so high and it’s a beautiful morning in this neighborhood isn't it a brand new day but i remember a different kind of light the very first one that came just because someone loving spoke its name and every single person is special and the song was a gift you know it was here long before we ever learned the words and the ground feels steady under our feet because someone else made it a safe place for us to stand fill the world with kindness plant the seed it's such a good feeling to try and help things grow to be a helper but you know sometimes my hands are clumsy and the best seeds were already planted for us in a garden we didn't even make let your heart take the lead oh but our hearts can get so mixed up can't they they feel happy and then sad and then a little bit scared it’s good to have feelings it's even better to have a quiet voice to listen for a steady hand to hold when your own heart doesn't know the way home every voice in the choir makes us strong and every single person is special and the song was a gift you know it was here long before we ever learned the words and the ground feels steady under our feet because someone else made it a safe place for us to stand fill up what is lacking in Christ i don't know about being a star that seems like a very big and lonely job maybe we are more like little mirrors just trying our best to catch a wonderful light that isn't ours at all and shine it into the dark corners and every single person is special and the song was a gift you know it was here long before we ever learned the words and the ground feels steady under our feet because someone else made it a safe place for us to stand
