Ok, I've been a little down and depressed the last few days but for many years I've known the best thing to cheer me up is to cheer others up.
So, I feel like singing and would like everyone on myLot to sing too!I don't want to see responses like "I don't sing" or "I can't sing" Come on people no one can hear you...
I also don't want to see just the title of a song - we are singing here so what are you singing? Give us at least a few lines - we may want to sing with you!
I'm singing one of my favorite hymns "In the Garden"
I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses.
And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
And He tells me I am His own;
And the joy we share as we tarry there,
None other has ever known.
Remember - you don't have to sing the same song as me but you have to sing, just keep it clean please!

Here's one of my favorites, always makes me feel a lot better when i'm down
"The World's Greatest" By: R. Kelly
Yeah,Uhh...
Uhh...
Yeah..
It's the worlds greatest, Yo,
It's the worlds greatest, Come on,
Worlds Greatest, Ever
I am a mountain
I am a tall tree
Ohhh, I am a swift wind
Sweepin' the country
I am a river
Down in the valley
Ohhh, I am a vision
And I can see clearly
If anybody asks u who I am
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say
[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the worlds greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my backs against the ropes
I can feel it mmm
I'm the worlds greatest
I am a giant
I am an eagle
I am a lion
Down in the jungle
I am a marchin' band
I am the people
I am a helpin' hand
And I am a hero
If anybody asks u who I am
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say
[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
I made it
I'm the worlds greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my backs against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the worlds greatest
In the ring of life I'll reign love
And the world will notice a king
When all is darkest, I'll shine a light
And use a success you'll find in me
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest
[*]
It's the greatest
Can you feel it
It's the greatest
Can you feel it
[Repeat * while:]
I saw the light
At the end of a tunnel
Believe in the pot of gold
At the end of the rainbow
And faith was right there
To pull me through, yeah
Used to be locked doors
Now I can just walk on through
Hey, uh, hey, hey, hey
It's the greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

should I try ho hide
the way I feel inside
my heart for you?
would you say that you
would try yo love me too?
in your mind could you ever be
really close to me?
I can tell the way you smile
if I feel that I could be certain then
I would say the thing
I want to say tonight
but till I can see
that you'd really care for me
I will dream that someday you'll be
really close to me
I can tell the way you smile
if I feel that I could be certain then
I would say the things
I want to say tonight
but till I can see
that you'd really care for me
I'll keep trying to hide
the way I feel inside
(the way I feel inside - the zombies)

"The devil is a sly old fox" I don't know that one, but I didn't grow up in church so not surprised. I like it though and before now I never thought about it but I should start teaching my grandkids some of these songs. I have 3 Veggie Tales videos that my 4 year old grandson watches every time he comes over.

Ok Faith, I have to sing my favorite song
Making Memories Of Us
Keith Urban
(Rodney Crowell)
I'm gonna be here for you baby
I'll be a man of my word
Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard
I wanna sleep with you forever
And I wanna die in your arms
In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
I wanna honor your mother
I wanna learn from your pa
I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw
I wanna stand out in a crowd for you
A man among men
I wanna make your world better than it's ever been
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
We'll follow the rainbow
Wherever the four winds blow
And there'll be a new day
Comin' your way
I'm gonna be here for you from now on
This you know somehow
You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now
And I'm gonna make you a promise
If there's life after this
I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm, wet kiss
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll win your trust making memories of us
oh baby
Sorry but its how I feel. lol I love that song. Oh and its for someone special. When i find him lol

I figured it had to be country - not my favorite but the country artist certainly know how to put feelings into music. I too like most music and there are even some country I like.

Since I am orignally from Kansas here is one for you:
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Amen! Kinda funny story about this song, before I really turned my life over to Christ gardening has always been a love of mine - going out early in the morning before others are awake and just enjoying quiet time. Many many times I remember singing the chorus to this song, it was all I knew, but when I learned the rest of it I understood. Even then God was talking to me and it was my quiet time in the garden when I heard that faint voice talking to me.

Well its been cloudy here in central Michigan and this song always comes to mind "My Girl". I've got sunshine on a cloudy day. When its cold out I've got the month of May. I guess you could say, what can make me feel this way. My girl! My girl! Talkin' 'bout my girl.

I want to sing a kannada (South Indian) song. To make it easier for others, I will translate it into English. Is it ok my friend.
Make me your flute my Lord
Take my request and do this God
Put your sweet voice's air into it
I will sing different ragas (songs) with it
Let the emptiness of my heart fill with it
Let me see happiness in your voice that I get
Let all my worries go gushing to the gate
Let my life become a blessed one with that
I wanted to sing with you my friend. Since I do not know the words for any song, I selected this one for you and me to sing together. Hope you are not bored.

I worship you, I worship you
The reason I live is to worship you (my Lord)
I worship you, I worship you
The reason I live is to worhip you..
When I look into your Holiness
When I gaze into your loveliness
When all things that surrounds me
become shadows in the ligt of you

This is the song I've been singin on my head since yesterday morning..:) hope you like it!

I see trees of green,red roses too,
I see them bloom for me and you
and I think to myself,what a wondeful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day,the dark scared night....
This is my favourite song,and I sing it when I'm under shower or when I 'm sad,so the sadness goes away

This a little song I remember singing to my children, and have sung to my grandchildren, who just love granny singing songs. I will have to get my voice in order to sing to the wee g/grandaughter now.
It goes like this:-
Verse 1
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam
To shine for him each day
In everyway try to please him
At home, at school, at play
Chorus
A sunbeam, a sunbeam
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam
A sunbeam, a sunbeam
I'll be a sunbeam for him
Verse 2
Jesus wants me to be loving
And kind to all I see
Showing how pleasant and happy
His little one can be
Verse 3
I will ask Jesus to help me
To keep my heart from sin
Every reflecting his goodness
And always shine for him
Verse 4
I'll be a sunbeam for Jesus
I can if I but try
Serving Him moment by moment
Then live with Him on high

Wow! I wanna join the singing going around here! I'll post an original composition though. This one I wrote for someone whom I had a special relationship with.
simply Walk Away
I close my eyes
And see your face everywhere
The lines etched in detail
When you hold my hand,
Blood rush through my veins
Teasing my heart
And the sound of your voice
Fills my head like lulubbies
But when these things happen
I simply toss the thoughts and walk away
Walk away..
The best times of my life
Were painted when you're near
Picture-perfect mem'ries
When we touch I can tell it's for real
We belong to be
And my world is complete
Spinning crazily with only you
But when these things happen
I simply toss the thoughts and walk away
Walk away..
It's sad that your heart belongs to someone else
If by chance you'll be free
Somehow, somewhere
I'll love you then
Maybe then..
But till it happens
I'll simply toss the thoughts and walk away
Until then..

Ok, everyone else is being sentimental and sappy. I like laughter and gaiety.
Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy.
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy.
Don't worry, be happy now.
Don't worry, be happy. Don't worry, be happy.
Don't worry, be happy. Don't worry, be happy.
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy.
The landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy.
(Look at me -- I'm happy. Don't worry, be happy.
Here I give you my phone number. When you worry, call me,
I make you happy. Don't worry, be happy.)
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got no gal to make you smile
Don't worry, be happy.
'Cause when you worry your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
Don't worry, be happy.
(Don't worry, don't worry, don't do it.
Be happy. Put a smile on your face.
Don't bring everybody down.
Don't worry. It will soon pass, whatever it is.
Don't worry, be happy.
I'm not worried, I'm happy...)

The song I picked is one I have actually sang on my karaoke machine. No matter how down I feel it always brings a smile to my face. By the way, I hope it is 'clean' enough.
Shania Twain's "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!"
I'm going out tonight-I'm feeling alright
Gonna let it all hang out
Wanna make some noise - really raise my voice
Yeah, I wanna scream and shout
Ah
No inhibitions - make no conditions
Get a little outta line
I ain't gonna act politically correct
I only want to have a good time
The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun (fun, fun)
Oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy - forget I'm a lady
Men's shirts - short skirts
Oh, oh, oh, really go wild yeah, doin' it in style
Oh, oh, oh, get in the action - feel the attraction
Color my hair - do what I dare
Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free-yeah, to feel the way I feel
And man! I feel like a woman!
The girls need a break - tonight we're gonna take
The chance to get out on the town
We don't need romance - we only wanna dance
We're gonna let our hair hang down
The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun (fun, fun)
Oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy - forget I'm a lady
Men's shirts - short skirts
Oh, oh, oh, really go wild-yeah, doin' it in style
Oh, oh, oh, get in the action - feel the attraction
Color my hair - do what I dare
Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free-yeah, to feel the way I feel
And Man, I feel like a woman!

Take me along
I don't care where you have gone
And I don't have to know exactly where we're going.
If you leave me behind
Then everything in your mind
Will turn to pictures of the word
we might have been
people alone they grow very fast
but maybe not too far
people alone they're still solitaire.
Remember, people alone may reach for a love
but only half as well
People alone they seem satisfied how can they tell.
That's People alone by Jamie Rivera. Not a very cheerful song, sad rather, but when I read your post, it's the first song that popped into my mind. The first song that I'd like to sing.
