Waiting for the Sunrise (Earth Day)


Words by Michael Khashmanian; Lyrics by Adam Kilner

Some days are good, some not so much
Seems like we've all been jaded by the golden touch
We have a chance to start anew
Deep down inside we all know what we have to do

We may have started down that slope
The word of God is there for all who have to hope
We have to learn to do what's right
Or else we'll turn our world into eternal night

That's why I'm waitin' for the sunrise everyday
Not goin' to let the dark night add to my dismay
Take a moment now and then to pray
Goin' let God's hand show me the way

Blowing dirty things into the air
Sometimes it seems like no one really gives a care
Oil pipelines gouge the countryside
We have to find a balance if we're ever to survive

Let's keep our water fresh and clean
The signs are everywhere just waiting to be seen
Things may look grim for planet earth
It's not too late for us to start with her rebirth


That's why I'm waitin' for the sunrise everyday
Not goin' to let the dark night add to my dismay
Take a moment now and then to pray
Goin' let God's hand show me the way


The hail may be pelting
The ice caps are melting
The climate is changing
Do we know what to do?


The factories belting
The iron we're smelting
The world's rearranging
Do we know what to do?


Some days are good, some not so much
Seems like we've all been jaded by the golden touch
We have a chance to start anew
