It's A Good Morning...

As many know about me is that I love the songs that Mandisa sings... This is one of those songs that makes you feel good from the time it starts... It makes me want to get going... The CD that has this song on it is my driving CD and even if I am having a hard day this one seems to make it all better... This song is on her "Stronger" CD... It would be great to wake up in this kind of a mood and have it carry us all the way through the day... If I know it is going to be a long day, I find this song gives me that extra jolt of something good... I am not a morning person, but this song makes me want to be a morning person to hear the birds singing and watch the sun rise while grabbing a latte... It doesn't make me want to Zumba though... I am putting two videos of this song on here... The first one is the official one with lyrics and the second one is a group doing Zumba to the song... Mandisa is way into the Zumba scene... The words to the song is also below the video's...

Official "Good Morning" with Lyrics


Group doing Zumba to "Good Morning" 


Lyrics to 'Good Morning" by Mandisa and featuring Toby Mac-

Wave away my yesterday
Cause I'm leaving it behind me.
Hello sunshine, come what may.
I feel something new inside me.
I hear the birds singing
Now my alarm's ringing
Get up, get up, hey!

It's a good morning!
Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good morning,
You give me strength,
You give me just what I need
And I can feel the hope that's rising in me.
It's a good morning

Slow down, breathe in,
Don't move ahead
I'm just living in this moment
I've got my arms raised, un-phased
Jump out of bed
Gotta get this party going
I went to bed dreaming,
You woke me up singing
Get up, get up, hey!

It's a good morning!
Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good morning,
You give me strength,
you give me just what I need
And I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning

Now I'm smiling, and I'm kissing all my worries goodbye
Got the feeling, if I spread my wings I might even fly
You are my truth, my way
Give me the strength to say
Get up, get up, get up
Cause it's a good morning, hey

Mr. Mac to the mic

[Toby Mac]
Hey, top of the morning to you 'disa
You smoothie, me ice cold pizza
Cafe au lait, latte dah
You do the zumba, but I do not
Give me like half a marathon,
I'll give you the gospel of St. John.
Hits me like a wake-up bomb
Cuz' we both know that His mercy flows,
In the morning.

Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good morning,
You give me strength,
you give me just what I need
I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning
Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good morning,
You give me strength you give me just what I need
I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning

[Toby Mac]
Top of the morning to you 'disa
Hey, top of the morning to you girl
To-to-top of the morning to you 'disa
Morning little Miss Sunshine.
[Spoken]
Man, you morning people.
No, I'm serious.

I love Mandisa too and this is one of my favorite songs. We do this one in our Zumba class. It is awesome. It definitely inspires us to move. I also love Shackles.

Zumba hasn't been one of those things I have gotten into... It makes me tired just watching it, lol... I love the song Shackles too... Every-time I hear her singing it, I think of the smack down she did to Simon Cowel and how forgiving she was of him... I love her new song Stronger too... That whole CD speaks to me in different ways... Most CD's have a couple great songs... But Stronger is full of them...
