"Morning Breaking"

Richard Smallwood Featuring Kelly Price

Strong winds are blowing waves of doubt sweep over my soul.

Heart feels like it's breaking sometimes I feel like I can't go on.

Darkness all around me., It seems like I'll never see the light of day

But just when I thought I'd give up,

I hear a voice within me say, Weeping may endure for a night.

Joy is coming in the morning light.

But I can see morning breaking through the night.

(Hold on, morning's breaking, hold on)
