I love Feel Good Saturday’s because the name says it all:

I FEEL GOOD!

This morning I dropped Ryan off at his drama rehearsal and heard this new song by Shawn McDonald who happens to be one of my FAVORITE Christian Singers.  One cool fact, I was in Tennessee for a wedding when he came to our St. Mary’s seminary for a concert and my youth group knew I loved him so much they called me on my cell and he TALKED TO ME on the phone! It was the sweetest gift they could give me, I’ll never forget it. 😉

I downloaded RISE instantly and have been singing it all day!

It is my new ‘feel good’ song and it is what ‘hit’ me today so I am sharing it with you!  (Again, I have not found a way to include the YouTube video in my post…all suggestions have not worked 🙁  so please take time to click on it.  You’ll LOVE it! 😉 )

RISE on YouTube

Lyrics to the song:

“Rise”

[Chorus]

Yes I will rise

Out of these ashes rise

From this trouble I have found

And this rubble on the ground

I will rise

Cause He Who is in me

Is greater than I will ever be

And I will rise

 

Sometimes my heart is on the ground

And hope is nowhere to be found

Love is a figment I once knew

And yet I hold on to what I know is true

 

[Chorus]

Yes I will rise

Out of these ashes rise

From this trouble I have found

And this rubble on the ground

I will rise

Cause He Who is in me

Is greater than I will ever be

And I will rise

 

Well I keep on coming to this place

That I don’t know quite how to face

So I lay down my life in hopes to die

That somehow I might rise

 

[Chorus]

Yes I will rise

Out of these ashes rise

From this trouble I have found

And this rubble on the ground

I will rise

Cause He Who is in me

Is greater than I will ever be

And I will rise

Blessings

Shannon
