Good Morning, Friend

C                                            G7
He's not on a golden throne way off in outer space
    C        C/Bb   F/A    F        G7            C
And He's not hiding out in some big secret hiding place
                                                  G7
I can guarantee He'll be your friend to touch and hold
        C     C/Bb   F/A      F        G7            C
And I'm qualified to tell it, 'cause I got Him in my soul

     G/B C/Bb F/A    F            C
Good morning friend, good morning friend
                                          D7                G7
Ev'ry day's a brand new morning since the morning you moved in
C    G/B C/Bb F      F            C
Good morning friend, good morning friend
                                            G7             C
Well I'm feeling like a million, since I've got you livin' in


He'll stand and knock upon your door 'til you let Him inside
He'll be your constant comforter and keep you satisfied
He'll make Himself available no matter who you are
He will light your darkest night and be your bright and morning star


Good morning friend, good morning friend
Ev'ry day's a brand new morning since the morning you moved in
Good morning friend, good morning friend
Ask me how I am this morning, and I'm proud to say again


Good morning friend, good morning friend
Ev'ry day's a brand new morning since the morning you moved in
Good morning friend, good morning friend
Every day's a brand new morning since the morning you moved in
