When two combine with music and rhyme

Rise & ShineIMG_0211

Where have the days gone

When people pass you by

They'd look into your eyes

And they'd actually say "hi"

Where have the days gone

When people would be kind

Without reason or a why

They just woke to rise and shine

<<Chorus>>

The people make me cry

Because they've lost their light

So it's our job to show why

Our reason to rise and shine

There's only one

yeah.. There's only one

hey hey hey ... There's only one

One reason to rise and shine

So you share a simple smile

As you pass them by

Take another moment and

Look into their eyes

Ask them how they're doin'

And show you want to know

'Cause you're showin' them our Lord

And how he loves them so-o-o

<<Chorus>>

<<Bridge>>

No He didn't simply die

On Calvary that night

He's risen alive on High

To bring us our new life.

There's only one

yeah... there's only one

hey hey hey there's only one

He's our reason to rise and shine

Hi, girl,
I love this song and I love it even more when I hear you two performing it.
Rise and Shine: That's what we need to do each day, to show the world our Light.
Love,
Jlo
