Lyrics
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
When the stars begin to fall
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
When the stars begin to fall
You will weep for the rocks and mountains
You will weep for the rocks and mountains
You will weep for the rocks and mountains
When the stars begin to fall
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
When the stars begin to fall
You will hear the shout of victory
You will hear the shout of victory
You will hear the shout of victory
When the stars begin to fall
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
When the stars begin to fall
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
My Lord, what a morning
When the stars begin to fall
When the stars begin to fall
When the stars begin to fall
