Me and My Mornings

My first rays saw time begin.  I am older that Adam's sin.
To all creation I am dear, yet none can touch nor hold me near.
By warmth you live, by light you see, I am the mentor of the land and sea.
I rule the hour by which you rise, For I am the King of the daytime skies.
And as you sleep I turn my face, the darkness falls into my place.
Yet flees at his appointed hour and cannot stand against my power.
My path is set, my time appointed, for mankind I was anointed
to light the alter from which he will step into eternity!

I don't know who wrote this but I liked it!  Beautiful mornings!
