"Wake up--hurry--come to the window!  The robins first song of the morning begins in 5 min.--you won’t want to miss it!"

First words out of your mouth of a morning?  Probably not.  And I’m sure the only response you'd get to that would be a pillow in your face.

When you are awake at, say...4 a.m., you're either trying to get back to sleep (in which case the pillow goes over your own head) or you're stumbling around trying to get ready for the day, and "listen to robin's song" is way down your list of "Things to do when I am blasted out of bed by my alarm at 4 a.m.".

I recently learned-- from a reliable source-- that robins actually have several morning songs.  The two that you may hear are appropriately named the “robin’s song” and the “dawn song” (a more “animated and excited” call, according to Lang Elliot, bird vocalization authority). 

Songs of praise....from robins....at 4 a.m. 

Isn't that just like the Lord, to show so much care for those simple birds that He would use them as examples to us!  Do we not have much more to sing about than they, yet how often do we wake up with praise in our mouths?
