Birdsong Before Dawn

You, hey you,

                though you cannot see it

night is almost over

                hang on a little longer

I will sing until the dawn.

You, hey you,

                don’t give up at the closing

                you will make it through the night

               watch for the morning light

I will sing until the dawn.

You, hey you,

                you are not alone in the dark

He sees your tears that are falling,

                outside your window, I am calling

I will sing until the dawn.

You, hey you,

                birdsongs wake and join the chorus

hope is rising with the morning

                a brand new day is forming

Sing with us until the dawn.

You, hey you,

                come and see

                                …

                                dawn is here.
