Lyrics

My Lord, what a morning!
My Lord, what a morning!
O my Lord, what a morning!
When the stars begin to fall.

You’ll hear the trumpet sound,
to wake the nations underground,
Looking to my God’s right hand,
When the stars begin to fall.

Gonna quit all my worldly ways,
join that heavenly band.

Refrain
