Ooh
Expressing a deep emotional response, possibly awe or reverence.
Lord, dear Lord above, God almighty,
Invocation of God, addressing the divine with respect and reverence.
God of love, please look down and see my people through.
Plea for divine intervention and protection for one's people.
I believe that God put sun and moon up in the sky.
Expressing belief in a divine order and creation.
I don't mind the gray skies
Acceptance of challenges (gray skies) as temporary obstacles.
'cause they're just clouds passing by.
Optimism in the face of difficulties, recognizing their transient nature.
Heaven is a goodness time.
Portraying heaven as a time of goodness, suggesting a positive afterlife.
A brighter light on high.
Anticipation of a brighter and elevated spiritual experience.
Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
Advocating for ethical behavior and the golden rule of treating others well.
And have a brighter by and by.
Reiterating the expectation of a brighter future through virtuous actions.
Lord, dear Lord above, God almighty,
Repetition of the plea for divine intervention, underscoring its importance.
God of love, please look down and see my people through.
Renewed request for divine guidance and protection for one's people.
I believe God is now, was then and always will be.
Affirmation of belief in God's eternal presence and omnipotence.
With God's blessing we can make it through eternity.
Expressing hope and confidence in overcoming challenges with divine blessings.
Lord, dear Lord above, God almighty,
Final plea for divine intervention and care for one's people.
God of love, please look down and see my people through.
Concluding request for God's love and protection.
