Lyrics
Verse-1:
I'm glad that your back on your feet again
haven't seen you in a while
It's nice that you would confide in me to help you walk the mile.
In truth I've little to offer you you see I am broken too.
Instead, tonight when I say my prayers
I will say this one for you.
Refrain:
May you sing a newer song than melody from radio
may you want for deeper needs than water or air,
may you laugh to truer joy, than comedy or movie shows
other things higher than mountains, deeper than sees
other than these.
Verse-2:
How fast, must you run to catch happiness?
And who will fall behind?
I've heard of one who is strong enough
to never your side
Refrain:
Bridge:
God has promised us loves amazing colors
peace to calm the troubled heart.
light for darkened rooms,
keys for every prisoner who longs to be free.
Refrain:
