Notes About The Poem

               DEDICATED TO AND INSPIRED BY: Gayle Rodd

Old school hymn, Stop feeling down and blue. God's got good things for you.  Just stand up and out and on faith. Let Him relay abundant blessings onto you. When the Lord smiles there's peace in are hearts.    <JELSR>

I Am Sure the Lord Is Smiling

I am Sure The Lord is Smiling

In your adversities and traumas;
I am sure the Lord is smiling;
In your healings and your pains, I know
that, the Lord is smiling
Now He's not laughing at you,
He's just happy to see you through;
So don't complain say His name
and say Thank you;
In the midst of your dilemma;
I know that the Lord is smiling
when all your hopes seem gone
and your just barely hanging on
just short of your rope feeling like a dope
just hold on a little longer
that, the Lord is smiling
Now He's not laughing at you,
He's just happy to see you through;
So don't complain say His name
and say Thank you;
cause the Lord is smiling;
I am sure the Lord is smiling :)
