This is a fun song, but also a true story of how I pattern my life. I'm not saying it should be the way you pattern YOUR life, or that it is the ONLY way or the RIGHT way for you.....but it's simply my way. I've found that if I start every day spending a little quiet time reading the Word of God, it gives me peace, confidence and strength to face whatever the world may come at me with. And besides, He loves for His children to spend time with Him.........don't you??

COFFEE WITH THE KING
© 2008 Duane Rod

Coffee in the morning, Bible in hand
A little bit of java while seeking His plan
Before the morning news or shave and shower
I’ll be in His Word for strength and power

To reveal the path and clear the fog
A quick prayer to say “get me through the day”
A kiss for my wife, a hug for my dog
Then it’s out the door, I’m on my way

CHORUS
Coffee with the King, in the morning first thing
Looking for His power in the early hour
Sweet fellowship with my best friend
Getting in the swing having coffee with the King

Dressed in the armor of Almighty God
Leaning into the wind, I will not fall
He comforts me with His staff and rod
No reason to worry, no reason at all

The people out there are looking at me
Thinking is he real or just a pharisee
But what they don’t know, what they don’t see
Is early this morning, I had coffee with the King
