In the Morning When I Rise

I am always struck by the sunrises in the late fall and winter when the leaves are gone and the view is not obscured throught the thicket of woods.

It makes the wake up and even getting outside with my bathrobe and camera worthwhile.

It's like a forest fire, bold and wild. But then it's cold out there, oh so cold.

I often listen to this song to start my day... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rZ8k9m2hwo

This is the best I've seen ICM! I did indeed think it was a forest fire when I first looked at it. We sing this song at our church too, although at a faster tempo than Fernando Oretega does in your link. BTW, did you know he is from Albuquerque?
