Why not wake with joy to greet 
The good day God has given?
Like Mockingbirds and Cardinals 
Each with their songs from Heaven

The Red winged blackbird in the field
The swallow on her nest
Sing out their special melodies 
As God has chosen best

And once their hours have passed and they
Towards home begin their flight
They find the place to rest their feet
And trust God’s care all night!


This is the day that the LORD has made;
    let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 ESV
