Hello everyone! Try not to faint when you notice that this makes 2 blog posts in as many days. I know it is hard to believe, but I have something important to share with you. If you can find a way to hear the song below, please do. The way it is sung, and the feel of the music adds to the beautiful lyrics.... But on to the important thing I have to tell you!
Jesus Loves You! You Are Not Alone!
Sometimes it takes a moment of sadness to steer you in the right direction. Sometimes it is itunes randomly playing the exact right song at the exact right moment. :) I was sitting in bed, putzing around on the computer, wallowing in old hurts with new actions attached when Good News by Chris Rice began to play. The beat is catchy, the melody fun, if a little hard to sing, and with lyrics I really needed to hear. So I thought I would share them with you. Along with the plug for Chris Rice, who is one of the more brilliant song writers. While checking out Good News be sure to catch Go light your world, Smell the Color 9, Untitled Hymn, Welcome to Our World, and Cartoon Song. Now, the lyrics for Good News are below. God Bless!
"Good News"
-Chris Rice
‘Cause you’ve had more than your share of hard times
Been so long since you heard the sweet music
Or seen the blue sky
Feels like nobody knows how you’re hurtin’
And you’ve gotten so tired of hidin’ your pain
And you’d give anything to lay down your burden
And just fly away
Oh, but don’t go flyin’ away
‘Cause I’ve got good news
It’s water for the thirsty
Comfort for the weary
Good news
I’ve got good news
There’s hope and peace and freedom
Jesus came to bring ‘em to you
And ain’t it about time
Ain’t it about time
Ain’t it about time for some good news
All those talk shows and war zones in the headlines
Well they can’t come close to your chaos inside
So you wanna find a way to leave behind your troubles
And get off this ride
‘Cause it seems like all you’ve been hearin’ is condemnation
And the last thing you need is more shame
Well even your preacher says the Lord is out to get you
But He ain’t that way
Oh no, the Lord, He ain’t that way
I’ve got good news
It’s water for the thirsty
Comfort for the weary
Good news
I’ve got good news
There’s hope and peace and freedom
Jesus came to bring ‘em to you
And ain’t it about time
Ain’t it about time
Ain’t it about time for some good news
