[Intro]
To all my people in the struggle
You think God's forgotten about you
Here's some pain medicine
Let's go
[Intro]
You in your car
You at the house
On your job
Be encouraged, boo, come on
[Verse 1]
I've been down so long
I've been hurt for so long
There were times I thought, I'd never see the break of day
It was hard for me to see Your plan for me
And I tried to believe strugglin' won't last always
[Verse 2]
See night after night
Night after night
Night after night
I pray, Lord, don't take Your joy from me (Don't take it, Father)
And then late one night, then late one night
I read in Your love letter that it's gonna get better (Let's go)
[Chorus]
Don't You know that I've been looking for You? (Come on)
I realize nothing else will satisfy me (Nothin')
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed, no one can keep me away from You
You've been so good to us
You brought us from a mighty long way
That's why we love You, come on
[Verse 3]
When my enemies tried to come for me
And they thought that my world was comin' to an end
All the while You knew that I would make it through (Yes, Lord)
I feel closer to You now than when I first began (Hallelujah)
[Verse 4]
Jesus, You are
Jesus, You are
Jesus, You are (You are, Jesus)
You are my sunlight after the rain (Yes, Lord)
Wherever You are
Wherever You are (I wanna)
I just wanna be near You, I'm so glad I can hear You
[Chorus]
Don't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me (Nothin', Father)
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed, no one can keep me away (Don't You know that)
I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me (Nothin')
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed, no one can keep me away from You
Here we go now, here we go now, don't stop now, let's go now
In the front now, in the back now
Let's go now, ladies
[Bridge]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (That's for the struggle)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (That's for the pain)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (That's for those dark nights)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (Come on, and sing it with us, y'all)
[Verse 5]
Jesus, You are
Jesus, You are
Jesus, You are (You are, Jesus)
You are my sunlight after the rain (Yes, Lord)
Wherever You are
Wherever You are (I just wanna be closer)
I just wanna be near You, I'm so glad I can hear You (Yes, I do, sing it with us, y'all)
[Chorus]
Don't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me (Nothin' will satisfy)
I'm so glad I found You (Yes, Lord, so glad)
Now that I'm changed, no one can keep me away (One more again, don't you know that)
I've been looking for You? (Realize, Father)
I realize nothing else will satisfy me (Nothin' will satisfy)
I'm so glad I found You (Hey)
Now that I'm changed, no one can keep me away from You
[Outro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
