Rejoice

(album: Say Yes! - 1987)

Rejoice, oh earth
The Lord has birthed
A brand new day
Rejoice, oh earth
Open up your yes
And give Him praise
Shout for joy sunrise
Roar ye ocean waves
Sing ye birds of paradise
For the day the Lord has made
Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice

Let the birds start their singing
Let the flowers start to bloom
The Creator has created
A new day for me and you
New mercies are abounding
Life is everywhere
This is the day the Lord has made
Yours and mine to share

Rejoice, oh earth
The Lord has birthed
A brand new day
Rejoice, oh earth
Open up your yes
And give Him praise
Shout for joy sunrise
Roar ye ocean waves
Sing ye birds of paradise
For the day the Lord has made
Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice

Blow the trumpet at the dawning
All creation sound His praise
With joyful adoration
Let us thank Him for His grace
For His pleasure He has made us
For His glory we shall live
Each day an opportunity
His praises to give

Rejoice, oh earth
The Lord has birthed
A brand new day
Rejoice, oh earth
Open up your yes
And give Him praise
Shout for joy sunrise
Roar ye ocean waves
Sing ye birds of paradise
For the day the Lord has made
Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice
Rejoice

Rejoice, oh earth
The Lord has birthed
A brand new day
Rejoice, oh earth
Open up your yes
And give Him praise
Shout for joy sunrise
Roar ye ocean waves
Sing ye birds of paradise
For the day the Lord has made
Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice
Rejoice

Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice
Rejoice, rejoice, oh earth, rejoice
