"You Rise and Meet the Day"

Love songs!...Whatever my stage in life, as sappy or ambiguous as they can be sometimes, they're the kind of song that doesn't leave my head for a while. I started listening to this artist a couple months ago, and particularly liked her lyrics on this song and a few others. I'm writing some of it down, just because it's what happens to be stuck in my head today, and if I ramble about song lyrics on a blog, no one has to listen to me if they don't want to. : )

I'm watching you go, it's like spying on hope
Ever onward with more to burn
Giving your hands and your heart
To the weave of the world, though it fights each turn

But you do not give up so easily
That's how I know you won't surrender me
You rise and meet the day
It's all I need to know.

[...]

And they will know the true and humble power
Of love that made it through the darkest hour
You rise and meet the day
It's all I need to know
