It's Already Alright

People everywhere are going through a lot.  Newspapers and news programs are full of bad news (Japan's earthquake/tsunami/nuclear problems), the new 'war' against Libya's dictator, revolutions in Syria, Tunisia, Egypt, etc., terrorists bombings in Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel.   Falling home prices, economic recession.  Folks are grieving the passing of their loved ones.  But I come to tell you that in the words of my pastor and Yolanda Adams, "it's already alright." 

I know things may not 'feel' all right at this moment, but as the scripture says "my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Phil 4:19).  This includes giving you the strength and comfort to make it through each day.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own (NIV Matt 6:34).  As Ms. Adams says,  although I'm surrounded by negativity, it's not going to change me.  Take a moment and sing along with Yolanda.  It will help you 'feel' that its already alright. 

Here are the lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcpXK3eKLGE&feature=related

I want to start things out by giving testimony
Cause one of my friends got ill seriously
Now the doctor told him ain't no way you gon' live
But he prayed his prayer in faith
And a miracle appeared
[Chorus]
Its already alright, its already alright
And all you got to do is
Just bow your head down
Just bow your head and pray
And then give it all up
And know everything's gon' be okay
Just throw your hands up
And then wave them left to right
And then do your dance child cause its already alright-----

Always surrounded by negativity
This might be where I live
But it ain't gonna change me
Gotta work on my mind
And keep my actions pure
And when I stumble, I know who has the cure. -----

So any time you're feeling down
Just lift your voice in praise It'll pick you right up
And you can come to Him, don't be afraid
Anytime, day or night He can give you what you need
And if you pray your prayer in faith
And in your heart believe 
that its already alright, its already alright ------
 [Chorus]
When life's problems get you down
Can't find no peace nowhere around
Trust in the Spirit you can't see
Its bout to bring you your relief
Go ahead and cry now, its alright
Cause now you're crying tears of joy
This life ain't hurting you no more
Cause you know its already alright
