Definition and Usage:
The term "morn" refers to the early part of the day, synonymous with morning. In biblical literature, the morning is often associated with new beginnings, divine intervention, and the renewal of God's mercies. It is a time of hope and expectation, symbolizing the light overcoming darkness.

Biblical References:

1. Creation and New Beginnings:
· The concept of morning is first introduced in the creation narrative. Genesis 1:5 states, "God called the light 'day,' and the darkness He called 'night.' And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day." Here, morning signifies the completion of God's creative work and the beginning of a new day.

2. God's Mercies and Faithfulness:
· Lamentations 3:22-23 highlights the renewal of God's mercies each morning: "Because of the LORD’s loving devotion we are not consumed, for His mercies never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness!" This passage emphasizes the constancy and reliability of God's compassion and faithfulness, renewed with each dawn.

3. Divine Intervention and Deliverance:
· In Exodus 14:27, the morning is a time of deliverance for the Israelites: "So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to its normal state. As the Egyptians fled toward it, the LORD swept them into the sea." The morning marks the moment of God's intervention and the salvation of His people.

4. Worship and Praise:
· Psalm 5:3 reflects the practice of morning prayer and worship: "In the morning, O LORD, You hear my voice; at daybreak I lay my plea before You and wait in expectation." The morning is a time for believers to seek God, present their requests, and express their trust in Him.

5. Symbol of Hope and Joy:
· Psalm 30:5 conveys the transition from sorrow to joy with the coming of the morning: "For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning." This verse illustrates the hope and renewal that morning brings after a period of darkness or difficulty.

6. Resurrection and New Life:
· The resurrection of Jesus Christ is associated with the morning, as described in Matthew 28:1: "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb." The morning of the resurrection signifies the ultimate victory over death and the promise of new life for believers.

Theological Significance:
In biblical theology, the morning is more than just a time of day; it is a powerful symbol of God's faithfulness, the renewal of His mercies, and the hope of salvation. It represents the triumph of light over darkness and the assurance of God's presence and intervention in the lives of His people. The morning serves as a reminder of the new beginnings available through God's grace and the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ.
