Song of the day
Ngiculela - Es Una Historia - I Am Singing
by Stevie Wonder


Es una historia de manana
Es una historia de amor
Es una historia que amor reinera
Por nuestro mundo
Es una historia de mi corazon

[I Am Singing]

There's songs to make you smile
There's songs to make you sad
But with an happy song to sing 
It never seems so bad
To me came this melody
So I've tried to put in words how I feel
Tomorrow will be for you and me

I am singing of tomorrow
I am singing of love
I am singing someday love will reign
Throughout this world of ours
I am singing of love from my heart

Let's all sing someday sweet love will reign
Throughout this world of ours
Let's start singing
Of love from our hearts
Let's start singing
Of love from our hearts

Song of the day 
Smile
by Kirk Franklin

I dedicate this song to recession,
depression and unemployment.
This song's for you.

Today's a new day, but there is no sunshine.
Nothing but clouds, and it's dark in my heart
and it feels like a cold night.
Today's a new day, where are my blue skies,
where is the love and the joy that you promised me
you tell me it's alright.

(I'll be honest with you)
I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain,
fell from heaven like a shower now.

(When I think how much better I'm gonna be when this is over)
I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,
I know God is working so I smile,
Even though I've been here for a while (what you do?)
I smile, smile..
it's so hard to look up when you've been down.
Sure would hate to see you give up now
You look so much better when you smile, so smile.

Today's a new day, but there is no sunshine.
Nothing but clouds, and it's dark in my heart,
and it feels like a cold night.
Today's a new day, but tell me where are my blue skies,
where is the love and the joy that you promised me
you tell me it's alright.

(the truth is)
I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain (the holy ghost power, yo)
fell from heaven like a shower now.

I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,
I know God is working so I smile,
Even though I've been here for a while
I smile, smile..
it's so hard to look up when you've been down.
Sure would hate to see you give up now
You look so much better when you smile.

Smile.. for me
Can you just smile... for me.
Smile.. for me
Can you just smile... for me.

ohohoh you look so much better when you
ohohoh you look so much better when you
ohohoh you look so much better when you
ohohoh you look so much better when you
ohohoh you look so much better when you
(and while your waiting)
ohohoh you look so much better when you
(and while your praying)
ohohoh you look so much better when you
(look in the mirror)
ohohoh you look so much better when you
(always remember)
You look so much better when you smile

I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain (but the holy ghost power, yo)
fell from heaven like a shower now.

I smile, even though I hurt see I smile,
I know God is working so I smile,
Even though I've been here for a while
I smile, smile..
it's so hard to look up when you've been down.
Sure would hate to see you give up now.
You look so much better when you smile.
so smile.

ohohoh (Dallas) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (New Orleans) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (Clevland) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (Detroit) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (Philay) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (Jersey) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (L.A) you look so much better when you
ohohoh (all my people say) you look so much better when you
smile...

See I just don't want you to be happy
'cause you gotta have something happening.
I want you to have joy
'cause can't nobody take that away from you.
I see you.. SMILE!!

Saturday Day 20
Turned out to be a day of rest.


I sat down and watched Whitney's funeral it just didn't feel right working out while watching and I'm glad I did. 
It was a wonderful send off. 
Pastor Winan took me it to church!

Song of the day 
I Look To You
by Whitney Houston

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to 

I look to you
I look to you

After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

Yeah

And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you

After losing my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I've taken
Lead to my regret
And I don't know if Im gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

I look to you
I look to you

Yeah

And when all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

Oh yeah

And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you


(my levies have broken, my walls have come) 

Coming down on me

(crumbling down on me)

All the rain is falling

(the rain is falling, defeat is calling) 

Set me free

(i need you to set me free)

Take me far away from the battle
I need you 
Shine on me

I look to you
I look to you

After all my strength has gone
in you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you

and when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song

I look to you

yeah

I look to you
oooooooh

I look to you

by Cheryl "Pepsi" Riley

Ooooooh yea 
Woooohhh, oh 
Yea 
One of us 

Verse 1 
If God had a name 
What would it be 
Would you call up to his face 
If you were faced with him and 
All his glory 
What would you ask 
If you had 
Just one question 
Yea

What if God was one of us (God was one of us) 
Just a slob like some of us (Slob like some of us) 
Just a stranger on the bus 
[ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/c/cheryl-pepsi-riley-lyrics/one-of-us-lyrics.html ]
Trying to make his way home 

If God had a face 
What would it look like 
And would you want to see it 
Seeing meant that you would 
Have to believe 
In things like heaven and in 
Jesus and the Saints and 
Only his prophets ya'll 

Hook 

Chorus 

What if he was (What if God, He was here) 
I'm wondering if he was you or me (What if God, If he was one of us) 
If he was one of us ( What if God, He was here) 
I wanna know, I gotta know, I wanna know, I gotta know 
If he was one of us 
Ooooooo 
Yea, yea

Hollaback Girl
by Gwen Stefani



Uh huh, this is my shit
All the girls stomp your feet like this 

A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl [x2]

Ooooh ooh, this my shit, this my shit [x4]

I heard that you were talking shit
And you didn't think that I would hear it
People hear you talking like that, getting everybody fired up
So I'm ready to attack, gonna lead the pack
Gonna get a touchdown, gonna take you out
That's right, put your pom-poms downs, getting everybody fired up

A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl [x2]

Ooooh ooh, this my shit, this my shit [x4]

So that's right dude, meet me at the bleachers
No principals,no student-teachers
Both of us want to be the winner, but there can only be one
So I'm gonna fight, gonna give it my all
Gonna make you fall, gonna sock it to you
That's right I'm the last one standing, another one bites the dust

A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl [x2]

Ooooh ooh, this my shit, this my shit [x4]

Let me hear you say this shit is bananas

Again
This shit is bananas
B-A-N-A-N-A-S

(B-A-N-A-N-A-S)

A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl [x2]

Ooooh ooh, this my shit, this my shit [x4]
