"Forever And A Day" lyrics

"Forever And A Day"
(performed with Jenn Johnson)

I was afraid, Your love set me free
I was in debt, You paid the price for me
And I was hurt, You took away my pain
I was alone, until You called my name
And I was broken, and You mended me
Before I was, You loved me
You healed my body, and You made me whole
No matter what I do, You don't let go

And I will sing to the King
And I am the ransomed one
And how I love Your holy name
Holy to the Lamb who was slain
And when I laugh and when I cry
You are the reason why
And how I long to be with You
Forever and a day
Oh, forever and a day

When I go to bed, You are near
When I wake up, You are there
When I call Your name, You are here
When I walk in faith, You're everywhere
You catch and save every tear I cry
You journal everyday all about my life
Your love for me reaches to the sky
And I am Yours, and You are mine

And I will sing to the King
'Cause I am the ransomed one
And how I love Your holy name
And holy to the Lamb who was slain
And when I laugh and when I cry
You are the reason why
And how I long to be with You
Forever and a day
Forever and a day

I was ashamed, You called me beautiful
I was ashamed, You called me beautiful
And now I'm Yours, You called me beautiful
And now I'm Yours, You called me beautiful
I was ashamed, You called me beautiful
Oh, I was ashamed, You called me beautiful
But now I'm Yours, You called me beautiful
And now I'm Yours...

And I will sing to the King
'Cause I am the ransomed one
And how I love Your holy name
And holy to the Lamb who was slain
And when I laugh and when I cry
You are the reason why
And how I long to be with You
Oh, forever and a day
Forever and a day

And I will sing to my King
'Cause I am the ransomed one
And how I love Your holy name
Holy to the Lamb who was slain
And when I laugh and when I cry
You are the reason why
And how I long to be with You
Forever and a day

Tis so sweet
Forever and a day
Tis so sweet
Forever and a day

I'd rather be in the courts of my Lord
Than anywhere else on earth
I'd rather be here with You my King
Than anywhere else on earth
This pleasure with You
Is greater than anything this world can offer me, yeah

I want to be heaven-minded
I want to be heaven-minded
I want to be heaven-minded like You
I want to be heaven-minded
I want to be heaven-minded
I want to be heaven-minded
I want to be like You
We want to be like You, Daddy, God
We want to be like You, Daddy, God
