Give God the Glory

It is 7:00am and I just witnessed a very beautiful red sunrise while looking out a 5th story window here at work. A song that I used to sing when I was a kid came to mind: 

Rise and Shine
aka - Children of the Lord
aka - The Arky Arky Song
Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory
Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory
Rise and Shine and give God the glory, glory
Children of the Lord

It fits well with how I started my day out today by praying and giving God the glory and also seeing the beautiful sunrise...if only I had a camera on me to capture the beauty of it.

PS - I forgot about the whole arky arky part of the song...all I could remember was the chorus.

oohhhh that song....has good memories for you but HORRIBLE ones for me! That's the song dad would yell/sing as he'd come barging into our room at 5am every morning growing up- flicking on all the lights. Talk about making someone crabby! I'm glad it brings good memories for you though :) And I'm even more glad you witnessed God's gorgeous sunset!
