Smile Lyrics - Kirk Franklin

I dedicate this song to recession, 

depression and unemployment. 

This song's for you. 

Today's a new day, and 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 almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain, 

fell from heaven like a shower. 

(When I think how much better I'm gonna be when this is over)

I smile, even though I'm 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 look down. 

I 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.

where is the love and the joy that you promised me 

you tell me it's alright. 

I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain 

fell from heaven like a shower. 

I smile, even though I'm hurt see I smile,
