Wow, I never heard this Woodie Guthrie song before now!
 I just discovered it sung by the great Texas folk icon himself, Ray Wylie Hubbard.

This morning I was born again 
and a light shines on my land
i no longer look for heaven in your deathly, distant land
i do not want your pearly gates don't want your streets of gold
This mornin' i was born again and a light shines on my soul

This mornin' i was born again, i was born again complete
i stood up above my troubles and i stand on my two feet
My hand it feels unlimited, my body feels like the sky
i feel at home in the universe where yonder planets fly

This mornin' i was born again, my past is dead and gone
This great eternal moment is my great eternal dawn
Each drop of blood within me, each breath of life i breathe
Is united with these mountains and the mountains with the seas

i feel the sun upon me, it's rays crawl through my skin
i breathe the life of Jesus and old John Henry in
i give myself, my heart, my soul to give some friend a hand
This mornin' i was born again, i am in the promised land

This mornin' i was born again and a light shines on my land
i no longer look for heaven in your deathly distant land
i do not want your pearly gates don't want your streets of gold
And i do not want your mansion for my heart is never cold"
--Woody Guthrie
