My eyes open with the dawn

and I gasp in wonder

at the beauty of Your sunrise,

each one different from the last.

All creation sings

as the promise of a new day is revealed,

giving hope

to a darkened world.

gorgeous photos!!

Wonderful photo essay!

I love being up for the sunrise! From my house, I can't get a very good picture of the sunrise, but before we had my daughter, my husband and I used to go every sunday and fish, and we would get there before sunrise, and see the sun rising off the water! Such a beautiful sight!!
