WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY!
WHAT A GLORIOUS WAY!

WHAT A DAY TO BE ALIVE
WHAT A WAY TO BE,
SKY SO WIDE DEEP INSIDE
CALLING ME TO BE FREE!
ROAD UNKNOWN BUT LEADING HOME
TO WHERE I LONG TO BE,
WITH A SONG TO LEAD US ON
COME SING ALONG WITH ME!

Ayayayaya!

Music: Trad. South Africa

Lyrics: Anders Nyberg, Jennifer Ferguson

Arrangement: Anders Nyberg

Come along on the road!

This song with its irresistible call to join the fun works to get everyone involved and on their feet!

Try teaching it by ear and learning it by heart! Then you have it accessible whenever there's time to move on. And every day, if we see truly, we have good reason to join in the first line: What a glorious day! And every stretch of the road beckons to sing "What a glorious way!"

As with many of the South African songs, it is very flexible and works SATB, as it is written here but also SAB, SSA, SSAB. And it sounds great even with limited resources. A song that can become your (or the whole choir's) best friend, bringing you all the way home!

Here sung together with Undersåkerskören:
