Hello everyone.
Welcome to Hive Open Mic week 126.
In response to this week's theme " Trusting in the process" I chose a song by Kirk Franklin - I smile.
Kirk Franklin in this song said he dedicate this song to recession, depression and unemployment.
The cause of feeling you are empty and
your heart is dark, is when you are tired of the process.
Truth, one must work to feed. But what happens to when one is tired of all the process of hustle and give up, it can cause recession, depression and unemployment.
Just like a farmer who tills the ground. He suffers and labour, farming is a process and the most enjoyed stage is the harvest season.
Without enduring the hard process and doing a good work without giving up, there won't be good harvest to be enjoyed.
In all the struggles and when the urge to give up rises. Just smile, believe God everything will work out for good.
Thank you for watching this
I smile : Kirk Franklin - Lyrics
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
But where are my blue skies?
Where is the love and the joy
That you promised me?
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 gon' 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
Come on, smile
It's so hard to look up when you've been down
Sure would hate to see you give up now
God's people, you look so much better when you smile, so smile
Now every day ain't gon' be perfect,
But it still don't mean today don't have purpose
Come on
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
It ain't easy, but today's a new day
But tell me where are my blue skies
Where is that love yo?
Where is the love and the joy
That you promised me?
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
Now know we've been hurt you but still 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
Still, I smile,
Hallelujah, smile
It's so hard to look up when you've been down
Sure would hate to see you give up now
God's people, you look so much better when you smile
Let's go, smile for me
Can you just smile for me?
Whatever you're in right now
Smile for me, smile
Can you just smile for me?
And my people say
You look so much better when you
You look so much better when you
You look so much better when you
You look so much better when you
I say you look so much better when you
And while you're waiting
You look so much better when you
And while you're praying
You look so much better when you
Look in the mirror
You look so much better when you
Always remember
You look so much better when you smile
Come on
I almost gave up, I almost gave up
But a power, that I can't explain
But the Holy Ghost power, yo
Fell from Heaven like a shower
Came down from Heaven now
Hardships, difficulties
Right now
Tears storms this is what I do
I smile
Even though I hurt, see, I smile
What it feels good
I know God is working so I smile
All things are working
Even though I've been here for a while
Still I smile,
Smile, hallelujah
It's so hard to look up when you've been down
I know it's hard right now
Sure would hate to see you give up now
Because you're a winner
You look so much better when you smile
You look better, so, smile
Dallas, you look so much better when you
New Orleans, you look so much better when you come one
Cleveland, you look so much better when you
Detroit, you look so much better when you
Philly, you look so much better when you
Jersey, you look so much better when you
L.A., you look so much better when you
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

Hola a todos.
Bienvenidos a la semana 126 de Hive Open Mic.
En respuesta al tema de esta semana "Confiar en el proceso" elegí una canción de Kirk Franklin - I smile.
Kirk Franklin en esta canción dijo que dedica esta canción a la recesión, la depresión y el desempleo.
La causa de sentir que estás vacío y
tu corazón está oscuro, es cuando estás cansado del proceso.
La verdad es que hay que trabajar para alimentarse. Pero lo que ocurre cuando uno está cansado de todo el proceso de trabajo y se da por vencido, puede causar recesión, depresión y desempleo.
Al igual que un agricultor que labra la tierra. Sufre y trabaja, la agricultura es un proceso y la etapa que más se disfruta es la de la cosecha.
Si no se soporta el duro proceso y se hace un buen trabajo sin rendirse, no se podrá disfrutar de una buena cosecha.
En todas las luchas y cuando surjan las ganas de abandonar. Sólo sonríe, cree en Dios que todo saldrá bien.
Gracias por ver esto
Sonrío : Kirk Franklin - Letra
Dedico esta canción a la recesión, la depresión y el desempleo
Esta canción es para ti
Hoy es un nuevo día
Pero no hay sol
Nada más que nubes
Y está oscuro en mi corazón
Y se siente como una noche fría
Hoy es un nuevo día
Pero, ¿dónde están mis cielos azules?
¿Dónde está el amor y la alegría
Que me prometiste?
Dime que está bien
Seré sincero contigo
Casi me rindo, pero un poder
Que no puedo explicar
Cayó del cielo como una lluvia
Ahora
Cuando pienso en lo bien que voy a estar cuando esto termine
Sonrío,
Aunque me duela, ves, sonrío
Sé que Dios está trabajando así que sonrío
Aunque he estado aquí por un tiempo
¿Qué haces? Sonrío
Vamos, sonríe
Es tan difícil mirar hacia arriba cuando has estado abajo
Seguro que odiaría ver que te rindes ahora
Pueblo de Dios, te ves mucho mejor cuando sonríes, así que sonríe
Ahora todos los días no van a ser perfectos,
Pero eso no significa que el día de hoy no tenga un propósito
Vamos
Hoy es un nuevo día
Pero no hay sol
Nada más que nubes
Y está oscuro en mi corazón
Y se siente como una noche fría
No es fácil, pero hoy es un nuevo día
Pero dime dónde están mis cielos azules
¿Dónde está el amor?
¿Dónde está el amor y la alegría
Que me prometiste?
Dime que está bien
La verdad es que casi me rindo, pero un poder
Que no puedo explicar
El poder del Espíritu Santo, yo
Cayó del cielo como una lluvia
Ahora
Ahora sé que te han herido pero aún así sonrío
Aunque me duela, ves, sonrío
Sé que Dios está trabajando así que sonrío
Aunque he estado aquí por un tiempo
Aún así, sonrío,
Aleluya, sonrío
Es tan difícil mirar hacia arriba cuando has estado abajo
Odiaría ver que te rindes ahora
Pueblo de Dios, te ves mucho mejor cuando sonríes
Vamos, sonríe por mí
¿Puedes sonreír por mí?
Lo que sea que estés en este momento
Sonríe para mí, sonríe
¿Puedes sonreír para mí?
Y mi gente dice
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Yo digo que te ves mucho mejor cuando tú
Y mientras esperas
Te ves mucho mejor cuando tú
Y mientras rezas
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Te ves mucho mejor cuando te miras en el espejo
Te ves mucho mejor cuando
Recuerda siempre
Te ves mucho mejor cuando sonríes
Vamos
Casi me rindo, casi me rindo
Pero un poder, que no puedo explicar
Pero el poder del Espíritu Santo, yo
Cayó del Cielo como una lluvia
Bajó del cielo ahora
Dificultades, dificultades
Ahora mismo
Tormentas de lágrimas esto es lo que hago
Sonrío
Aunque me duela, ves, sonrío
Lo que se siente bien
Sé que Dios está trabajando así que sonrío
Todas las cosas están trabajando
Aunque he estado aquí por un tiempo
Todavía sonrío
Sonríe, aleluya
Es tan difícil mirar hacia arriba cuando has estado abajo
Sé que es difícil ahora mismo
Seguro que odiaría ver que te rindes ahora
Porque eres un ganador
Te ves mucho mejor cuando sonríes
Te ves mejor, así que, sonríe
Dallas, te ves mucho mejor cuando
Nueva Orleans, te ves mucho mejor cuando vienes uno
Cleveland, te ves mucho mejor cuando
Detroit, te ves mucho mejor cuando
Filadelfia, te ves mucho mejor cuando
Jersey, te ves mucho mejor cuando
L.A., te ves mucho mejor cuando
Toda mi gente dice que te ves mucho mejor cuando sonríes
Ves, no quiero que seas feliz
Porque tienes que tener algo que pase
Quiero que tengas alegría
Porque nadie puede quitarte eso
Te veo sonreír
