[Verse 1]
As surely as the dawn will come
as certain as the day
there s comfort for the weary
hope for all who stray.
The father holds His arms out wide
and bids the sinner come
find shelter in the storm
as certain as the day
as surely as the dawn.
[Verse 2]
As surely as the dawn will come
it was for me he died
my hands drove in the nails
my selfishness, my pride.
And though my heart is black with sin
the morning light breaks through
and hope has been reborn
for mercy comes anew
as surely as the dawn
[Verse 3]
As surely as the dawn will come
we ll rise to meet new life
redemption s price is paid
God s wrath is satisfied.
Now kindness is the air we breathe
forgiveness, grace will come
anew to us each morn
as certain as the day
as surely as the dawn.
