Jenny, a reader, requested the words to the hymn Angry Words. Here is the first verse (which is all I could remember - maybe we quit fighting when she started singing and she didn't have to sing the second verse).
Angry words, O, let them never
From the tongue unbridled slip
May the heart's best impulse ever
Check them ere they soil the lip.
Love one another, thus saith the Saviour
Children obey the Father's blest command.
Love one another, thus saith the Saviour
Children obey the blest command.
I found a link to the other verses, click here. [You can even make it a ring tone.] The words are so true especially for us as adults to one another.
Everytime we sing this in church I cry thinking of my mother. It is a precious memory. I love how she brought us up in the nuture and admonition of the Lord. She also used to sing us awake each morning to the chorus of Rise and Shine.
[Rise and shine and give God your glory, glory.
Rise and shine and give God your glory, glory,
Rise and shine and give God your glory, glory children of the Lord.]

Thanks for posting those lyrics! I was wondering how that song went when you mentioned it. It's a good reminder, that's for sure.
God bless,
Amanda
Yes, thakns for posting the words. I LOVE the song at the end "Rise and Shine and give God the glory glory!" I will have it ringing in my ears all day! Thanks! (meant with sincerity, not sarcasm)
Thanks so much for posting the words. I am going to learn them and sing them when I feel the shouting urge come over me and when I hear those angry words coming from the boys.
