This was one of my sister's favourite songs when we were younger. Every time we went out with our father to the workshop she would ask him to put on this CD and we would dance around any clear space we could find and sing along, although not very accurately. For almost a decade we were convinced that the song contained the line See his smiling overalls (rather than ...and see Him smiling over us).
Title: The Happy Song
Artist: Delirious?
Album: Cutting Edge
Year: 1997

I love this song! They taught us a little dance to do with it at youth camp when I was like thirteen. I was always sad that it was never sung in church...
Really? That sounds cool! You'll have to show me sometime.
We should spearhead that movement in our churches. I think a few people would enjoy it in our church... I don't know about yours...
Of course, one would have to find either sheet music or a karaoke track and that's much easier said than done.
Yeah, apparently it's pretty hard to chord, which is the main reason it's not in use at our church, but I'd love to change that. I don't really remember how the dance goes, though, just that there was one. :)
I'll just take your word for it... I wouldn't know. :-)
That's my main problem with liking such obscure music -- you can't find the sheet music anywhere. Basically if you want to cover a song (or even sing it in church), you would have to talk to the artists themselves and ask for a copy of their sheet music -- if they still have it.
And that's never going to happen.
