[Verse] Early morning’s creeping in, shadows stretch and yawn Fluorescent lights hum low, I’m scanning life till dawn Groceries on the belt, but my soul’s in a fight Humming gospel tunes, cutting through the night [Pre-Chorus] Fingers worn and steady, eyes that know the pain But the spirit keeps me walking through the cold and rain [Chorus] Oh, I’m humming salvation in the dead of the dawn Cash register ringing while the world keeps moving on A gritty melody, shaking off my chains In the heartbeat of the morning, I find my strength again [Verse] Faces pass like ghosts, stories left unsaid But I hold onto the music, the words inside my head Each beep a small prayer, a fight against the gray In the hum of the dawn, I find my way [Pre-Chorus] Fingers worn and steady, eyes that know the pain But the spirit keeps me walking through the cold and rain [Chorus] Oh, I’m humming salvation in the dead of the dawn Cash register ringing while the world keeps moving on A gritty melody, shaking off my chains In the heartbeat of the morning, I find my strength again [Bridge] When the day gets heavy, and the night seems long I cling to that gospel, in that sacred song Through the grind and the silence, through the loss and the cost I’m a soul unbroken, never truly lost [Chorus] Oh, I’m humming salvation in the dead of the dawn Cash register ringing while the world keeps moving on A gritty melody, shaking off my chains In the heartbeat of the morning, I find my strength again [Outro] Humming salvation, humming salvation In the heartbeat of the morning, I find my strength again
