[HANASHIR:12343] What d'ya think of this song?

[Ellen Allard <ellen...>]

Okay, so I'm curious about this song. Anyone have any particular opinions
about using it in conjunction with teaching about Noah? In a children's
Shabbat service?

RISE AND SHINE

Chorus: Oh, rise and shine, and give G-d your glory, glory
Rise and shine, and give G-d your glory, glory
Rise and shine and give G-d your glory, glory
Children of the Lord!

The Lord said to Noah, there¹s gonna be a flood-y flood-y (2x)
