Monday Morning Reveille

Reveille

Up and at ‘em

Herd or scat ‘em 

Hug and hold ‘em 

Wash and fold ‘em 

Training, teaching, 

Praying, preaching 

Hurting, hoping 

Seeing, groping 

Running, crawling, 

Flying, falling 

Laughing, crying 

Cheering, sighing 

Dawdlin’, hastin’ 

Time’s a-wastin’ 

Left foot, right foot 

Slipper, work-boot 

Slow or faster 

Let love master 

Sort and tally 

Hill or valley 

Squat or lanky 

Kind or cranky 

Old or younger 

Let sheer wonder 

Thunder, rumble 

Tremble, tumble 

Never grumble 

But be humble 

Winning, losing 

Waking, snoozing 

Seizing, yearning 

Leading, learning 

Lend or borrow 

Joy or sorrow 

Seen or hidden 

Bossed or bidden 

Don’t be lazy 

But keep busy 

Ev’ry season 

Make the reason 

In life’s story 

For God’s glory

For you were bought with a price. 

So glorify God in your body.

1 Cor.6:20

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, 

do all to the glory of God.

1 Cor.10:31

In the same way, let your light shine before others,

 so that they may see your good works 

and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Matt.5:16

For from him 

and through him 

and to him are all things. 

To him be glory forever. 

Amen.

Rom.11:36

Whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; 

whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—

in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. 

To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. 

Amen.

1 Pet.4:11
