Something awoke me at dawn
Morning-birds arrive with a song
And at this moment the world stands still
A calming peace is all I feel
The sun stirs up a gentle breeze
And paints the sky like from a dream
The earth has risen from its slumber
Its serenity makes me wonder
And at this moment I am a child
Living life for the first time
Everything seems so true
And all at once, so brand new
Its beauty takes me away
I can feel the warmth on my face
And at this moment I have learned
All the reasons the world turns
I have seen perfection
Stood at the gates of Heaven
