Rise and Shine


Words and music: Carl Perkins © 1970 Cedarwood Publishing (BMI)
Lead: Tom Arnold

Lyrics:

Little children do not worry cause we still got lots of time
There's no need of walkin' backwards, turn around, go rise and shine
If your load or way seems heavy and you're always left behind
Pick yourself up from the ground and jump back now, go rise and shine

Chorus:
Rise and shine in the early morning, shine your light all through the day
Makes no difference what they tell you, stand right up and have your say
For the good Lord said He loves you and in His strength you'll find
Even though the world may use you, get up now, go rise and shine

Just look at how they did poor Jesus; why, they nailed Him to the cross
And 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 the face
Just remember Jesus loves you and on the cross He took your place

Repeat Chorus

Rise and shine

Repeat Chorus

Rise and shine

Repeat Chorus

Even though the world may use you, get up now, go rise and shine (go rise and shine)
