More about Dawn Rose:
I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and am the mother of eleven children and the grandmother of sixteen. My husband and I are the adoptive parents of seven African-American children. I have an internet business, since 2007, where I make and sell look-a-like dolls of children all over the world. Writing poetry is a lifelong joy; lately I am finding pleasure in the whimsical characters that have come to life in my children's poetry. Three of these poems have been published as children's books so far. I play guitar by ear and love to sing, and although I am not a pianist, with the new computer programs available I can compose the music I feel in my heart. I hope my music will be a blessing to some of you. Things I love: Music, literature, laughing children, the words of Christ, soft horse muzzles, and floppy dog ears.

Lyrics: Verse 1
Were you there when Jehovah made the world--
When he hung the moon and sun;
Did you sing, did you shout?
Were you there when the battle had begun—
Beside Michael ‘til we won;
Did you help cast Satan out?
Were you with the choir of angels
When the sang Jehovah’s praise?
For he has a plan to save us
Hallelujah we will raise.

Chorus:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah means that I’m so happy He has finally come.
He will save us from our sin, He will never die again;
I’ll join my voice with angels singing Halleluia.

Verse 2
Were you there when a new star had appeared—
A new light was on the earth;
Did you help spread the word?
Were you there when the shepherds in the field
Were told of the Savior’s birth?
Did you see them leave their herd?
Were you with the choir of angels
When they told the world, He came?
He’s the prince of peace, sing Hallelujah
Jesus is His name.

Chorus

Verse 3
Were you there when the multitude He fed—
Healed the leper, raised the dead;
When he calmed waves that toss?
Were you there when from all His pores He bled—
Crown of thorns placed on His head;
Did you see Him on the cross?
Were you with the choir of angels
When they saw Him rise again?
He has conquered death, He lives!
Hallelujah, Jesus reigns!

Chorus
