Glorious Day

Darrell Courtley

Woke up this morning and I jumped out of bed
Robin by my window leaving songs in my head,
oh oh it’s a glorious day.
Music all around me and I could not stop
Even my breakfast singing snap crackle pop,
oh oh it’s a glorious day
Wonderful day Beautiful day
nothing else that I can say,
except, it’s a glorious day
Wonderful day Beautiful day
nothing else that I can say,
except, Great God! It’s a glorious day.
Went outside felt the sun on my face
felt my heart open up to the whole human race
oh oh it’s a glorious day.
Said “Hi, neighbor, you’re looking well”
every body I meet I’ve got to tell the good news
it’s a glorious day.
(chorus)
Last night the world seemed dark and cold,
but now I’ve got more joy than my soul can hold
Oh oh, it’s a glorious day
And tomorrow might be just as bad,
but on a day like today I refuse to be sad.
Oh, oh, It’s a glorious day.
