Sunrise

Music and words by Paul Nahay.
Performed by Steven Andrews, vocals,
and Paul Nahay, piano.
1980 May 4 at the University of Maryland
College Park campus

The world sleeps in debilitation,
Weary of life's complications.
For though she rests, she'll find at best
The dark standing there
Instead of what she needs:
Someone in whom she can believe.

But look, the morning mist is slowly clearing.
The twilight stars are disappearing.
And dawn's first light, splits the night
And brings a glow of hope, til
Across the valley and over the mountain he appears.
He comes out.
Why he's here,
Right now.

Sunrise, sunrise
Sunrise, sunrise
You've taken us by surprise

Sunrise, sunrise
Sunrise, sunrise
You've helped to open our eyes.

Sunrise, sunrise, sunrise,
Sunrise, sunrise, sunrise,
Sunrise.
