Rise And Shine

Little children do not worry
Oh, you still got lot's o' time
There's no need in walkin' backwards
Turn around and rise and shine

'Cause the good Lord said he loves you
And through him new strength you'll find
And even though the world may use you
Get up now, go rise and shine

Rise and shine early mornin'
Shine your light all through the day
Makes no difference how they treat you
Stand right up and have your say

'Cause the good Lord said he loves you
And through him new strength you'll find
And even though the world may use you
Get up now, go rise and shine

Look at how they done poor Jesus
Why, they nailed him to the cross
When he died out there on Calvary
So the world would not be lost

So no matter how they treat you
If they slap you in your face
Just remember Jesus loves you
And all because he took your place

Shine early mornin'
Shine your light all through the day
Makes no difference how they treat you
Stand right up and have your say

'Cause the good Lord said he loves you
And through him new strength you'll find
And even though the world may use you
Get up now, go rise and shine

Look at how they done poor Lazarus
When he begged for the rich man's crumbs
But the rich man, high and mighty
He refused and gave him none

Now he's placed himself with Jesus
In that large house up above
'Cause the good book plainly tells us
Lazarus learned to live on love

Rise and shine ev'ry mornin'
Shine your light all through the day
Makes no difference how they treat you
Stand right up and have your say

'Cause the good Lord said he loves you
And through him new strength you'll find
And even though the world may use you
Get up now, go rise and shine

Rise and shine into the mornin'
Shine your light all through the day
Makes no difference how they treat you
Stand by and have your say

'Cause the good Lord said he loves you
And through him new strength you'll find
And even though the world may use you
Get up now, go rise and shine
