I Need You Now lyrics

You know,
I was looking at the condition of the world
the other day
Seems there's too much killing,
too much dying, too much pain
I don't know about you, but I'm tired
Tired of the same old sad song

Sittin' at the window of life
Watching the world go by
Seeing little brothers and sister
With pain and fear in their eyes

Wishing I could take them
And make them all my own

Not a second
Or another minute
Not an hour
Or another day

But at this moment with my arms outstretched
I need you to make a way
As you’ve done so many times before
Through a window or an open door
I stretch my hands to you
Come rescue me
I need you…
Right away

I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now

Not another second
Or another minute

Here we go
Oh yeah
It’s all about you, yeah yeah

So many days
In so many ways
I took for granted
All you had planted in my life
For me to enjoy
Since I was a little bitty boy

Now my eyes are open so I can see
All you’ve done for me,
You’ve made my life complete
Oh what joy to me you bring
So forever I lift my voice and sing

[Chorus:]

I've had sins
And I've had pain
My heart has been broken
And my life has been strained
But in spite of everything I've been through
I still gotta say thank you

I've been up
And I've been down
Had my life turn, turn, turn
Completely around
But in spite of everything I've been through
I still... I gotta say thank you

Thank you... Thank you

Life is not promised to anyone
There'll be a way
I've got somethin' I wanna say

I need to ask you some things
about what life has offered you
The ice, the cars, those things
It really don't mean a thing

What does it mean to gain the world
and in the end lose your soul [Soul!]
I think I outta let you know
That these things don't last for life

[Chorus:]

Come on everybody
It feels like Sunday morning in here
Oooh...

Whenever I think of all that he's done for me
How he came from heaven
and he gave me the victory
He's been so good to me,
I just can't thank him enough
When I think of his goodness
I just wanna to praise him

If I had ten thousand tongues,
I still couldn't tell it all
Everytime I stumble,
he's there to break my fall

Ah yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey yeah
Come on everybody
Here we go

God has been so good to me
I can't tell it all, you see
When I think of his goodness
And all that he's done
I gotta give him praise and glory

[Can't stop]
I can't stop
[Praisin']
[I just can't stop]
Praisin the Lord
[I just can't stop]
Praisin' the Lord

The Lord is worthy to be praised

DOA
Back atcha Once again
DOA got the track
And my man Smokie
He got the word Y'all

Somethin' somethin'
Yeah, Talkin somethin bout that man
Somethin somethin', somethin' somethin'
Smokie, kick that first first

Smokie- Somethin' that makes me move
whenever I'm next to you
DOA- Yeah

that little dance I do
DOA- Do the dance I do
