Morning Has Broken (Cat Stevens cover) - Maggie

Morning Has Broken (Traditional "Bunessan" song from Scottish Hilands aka "Child in the Manger", lyrics written by Eleanor Farjeon, arranged and recorder by Cat Stevens and Rick Wakeman in 1971)
Lyrics:
Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for the springing fresh from the word

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day

Recorded (among many others) by: Cat Stevens, Judy Collins, Michael Card, Floyd Cramer, Dana, Neil Diamond, Art Garfunkel, Joe Longthorne, Nana Mouskouri, Aaron Neville, Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, Sister Janet Mead, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir on Consider the Lilies, Roger Whittaker and Ellen Greene.

Kiitokset! Pesunkestävä rokkari jaksoi siis kuunnella tämän virren kaikki neljä säkeistöä - vai? Kolmas on näistä oma suosikkimme. ;-)

Thank you - we are continuing our stereo recording attempts. This song was useful to check my guitar's tuning against Maggie's singing ;-)
