Lord, I hope this day is good

I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood

I should be thankful Lord, I know I should

But Lord, I hope this day is good


Lord, have you forgotten me?

I've been prayin' to you faithfully

I'm not sayin' I'm a righteous man

But Lord, I hope you understand


I don't need fortune and I don't need fame

Send down the thunder Lord, send down the rain

But when you're plannin' just how it will be

Plan a good day for me


Lord, I hope this day is good

I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood

I should be thankful Lord, I know I should

But Lord, I hope this day is good


You've been the king since the dawn of time

All that I'm askin' is a little less crime

It might be hard for the devil to do

But it would be easy for you


Lord, I hope this day is good

I'm feelin' empty and misunderstood

I should be thankful Lord, I know I should

But Lord, I hope this day is good
