Rob Mathes performed this amazing song on The Today Show (as a surprise guest) in honor of Kathie Lee Gifford's birthday.
I really liked this song and didn't want it to end, so what you have here is a loop.
For more information on the man behind the music, please see my other video (with KLG) here is the link to it:

And here are the lyrics to "God Gave Me a Sunrise" by Rob Mathes:
I was standing on the shoreline,
between heaven and the sea
the sight of an ocean full of sorrow
all but consuming me
I was weak, I was wounded
I was too tired, to even pray
Oh, always running, always rushing
to beat the break of day
Oh, but then God gave me a sunrise,
and the eyes to see its light
God gave me a sunrise,
at the end of my darkest night
and that shinning brightness,
like a prophet's mournful cry,
cried, what you think will fill you up,
is nothing but a lie,
Hallelujah
God gave me a sunrise,
A Sunrise...
I was standing in the shadows
between desire and despair
and a voice it seemed to whisper,
you know, no one's gonna care
I could fly, I could fall down
I could chase the wind until the day I die
oh, from these waves of desperation,
rose, a morning sky
yeah, and then God gave me a sunrise
and the eyes to see its light
God gave me a sunrise,
at the end of my darkest night
and that shinning brightness,
like a prophet's mournful cry,
cried, what you think will fill you up,
will only leave you dry
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah,
HALLELUJAH!
God gave me a sunrise,
A Sunrise!
WOW!
