Morning Song

There is a bird that sings every morning before the sun rises. He sings alone, he sings loud. From out of the darkness he calls to all the others. 'Awake the sun is coming, you need to be ready.' I hear him from my bed as he calls me to prayer before the day begins, the Father waits to hear my voice joining the morning song.

'My Beloved spoke, and said to me: "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing is come, the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land....Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away."

Do you hear the song of the morning bird as He calls the church to a new day? Are you ready? The son is coming.
