Rise and shine and, (clap),
Give God the glory, glory,

The Lord said to No-ah,
There’s going to be a flood-y, flood-y,

There’s going to be a flood-y, flood-y,
Get those children, (clap)
Out of the mud-dy, mud-dy,

For for-ty day-sies, day-sies,
Drove those ani-mals, (clap)
Nearly cra-zy, cra-zy,
Children of the Lord.

The sun came out and
Dried up the land-y, land-y,

Fine and dan-dy, dan-dy.
Children of the Lord.
