Thank you for visiting this page!  Little did I know how much my posting this link would bless people from all over the world. I simply wanted to share what the Lord had given me with others.

I wrote this when I was 22 years old (more than 30 years ago now) to sing for an Easter sunrise service at the First Baptist Church in La Luz, New Mexico where I was a member at the time. The pastor, Paul Voorhies, asked me to sing something and I did not want to sing some tired old hymn that would tend to remind people they could be home in bed, still sleeping. So I prayed to God for a song and he gave me this one to wake them up that early in the morning. If this song has blessed you I'd like to know about it. Send me an email using the following link.

Feel free to use this song in your church worship and praise services to glorify God the Almighty and Jesus Christ, our Savior!


Recorded at First Baptist Church in Dinuba, California. Easter Sunday, April 12, 2009
