Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good
Hoping for Grace: Unveiling the Soulful Yearning in Don Williams' Melody
Lyrics
Lord, I hope this day is good
Expressing a wish for a positive and fulfilling day.
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
Feeling a sense of emptiness and being misunderstood.
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
Recognizing the need for gratitude despite personal struggles.
But Lord, I hope this day is good
Reiterating the hope for a good day despite challenges.
Lord, have you forgotten me?
Expressing a feeling of being forgotten by the divine.
I've been prayin' to you faithfully
Stating faithful prayers to seek divine attention.
I'm not sayin' I'm a righteous man
Acknowledging personal imperfections but seeking understanding.
But Lord, I hope you understand
Expressing hope for divine comprehension despite shortcomings.
I don't need fortune and I don't need fame
Rejecting the desire for wealth and fame.
Send down the thunder Lord, send down the rain
Requesting divine intervention through symbolic elements.
But when you're plannin' just how it will be
Asking for positive planning in life's outcomes.
Plan a good day for me
Specifically requesting a good day to be planned.
Lord, I hope this day is good
Reiterating the earlier hope for a positive and fulfilling day.
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
Repeating the feelings of emptiness and being misunderstood.
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
Emphasizing the recognition of the need for gratitude.
But Lord, I hope this day is good
Reiterating the hope for a good day despite challenges.
You've been the king since the dawn of time
Acknowledging the divine as a timeless and powerful force.
All that I'm askin' is a little less crime
Requesting a reduction in wrongdoing or evil in the world.
It might be hard for the devil to do
Acknowledging the difficulty but expressing faith in divine capability.
But it would be easy for you
Highlighting the ease with which the divine can bring about positive change.
Lord, I hope this day is good
Reiterating the earlier hope for a positive and fulfilling day.
I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood
Repeating the feelings of emptiness and being misunderstood.
I should be thankful Lord, I know I should
Emphasizing the recognition of the need for gratitude.
But Lord, I hope this day is good
Reiterating the hope for a good day despite challenges.
