Good Morning
Mandisa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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!
Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, 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
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
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, 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
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
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
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
'Cause we both know that His mercy flows,
In the morning.
Wake up to a brand new day
This morning,
I'm stepping, 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, 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
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.
Man, you morning people
Ha ha ha
No, I'm serious
