Getting Up
 
When I get up in the morning
     I’ll tell you what I do
I wash my hands and wash my face
     Splishety-splash, splishety-splash
I clean my teeth till they’re shining white
     Scrubbity-scrub, scrubbity-scrub
Then I put on my clothes and brush my hair
     And runnity-run, I run downstairs.

Morning Windows
 
The brightest thing a house can do,
     When morning fills the skies,
Is just to catch the sun’s first rays,
     And flash the brilliant prize.
 
No eighty-candle lights within
     Can match the dazzling sight,
And every window-pane becomes
     A fusillade of light!
 
Thus, thus it is when households kneel
     In humble morning prayer.
The very Sun of Righteousness
     Is caught and captured there:
 
And all the day, in all its ways,
     However dull they be,
The happy windows of that home
     Are scintillant to see!
