I Hope This Day Is Good

Years ago I was introduced to the wonderful music of Don Williams and I became a fan for life. That smooth voice takes me to a simpler time with straightforward lyrics. A day or two after the election, I was listening to music online and thoroughly bored with everything I could find (you know...300 channels and nothing on) when he suddenly popped into my head. Yes, that was the soothing my soul needed. As so many were, I was tired and weary from all of the negativity and protest disruptions. I was tired of all the hate. I was just plain tired.

There it was, a song that spoke to me, "Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good." Take a listen and read through the lyrics. I hope it will resonate with you as it did me. Let's take one day at a time, and hope it's good. I put the verse in red that was the one I resonated with most at that time.

One More Thing...

Remember that God's in control and we only need to lean on Him for one day at a time.

Take care, and I'm always here to pray for you if you have a need or request.

Lord, I Hope This Day is Good
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

Lord, have you forgotten me
I've been prayin' to you faithfully
I'm not sayin' I'm a righteous man
But Lord, I hope you understand

I don't need fortune and I don't need fame
Send down the thunder Lord, send down the rain
But when you're planning just how it will be
Plan a good day for me

Lord, I hope this day is good
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

You've been the king since the dawn of time
All that I'm asking is a little less crime
It might be hard for the devil to do
But it would be easy for you

Lord, I hope this day is good
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good
