Welcome To The New cover
08. Wishful Thinking
Album: Welcome To The New
Artist: MercyMe
         
 

Lord is it possible / To get this far / And just now understand / Who You are / I’m feeling foolish / Yet relieved as well / ‘Cause what I bought before / I just can't sell / But now / My eyes are open wide / If this is wrong / I don't wanna be right / Could it be that on my worst day / How You love me still will not change / What if it's really not about what i do but what You did / Oh what if / This ain't wishful thinking it's just how it is / This ain't wishful thinking it's just how it is / Well I guess I’m better late / Than not at all / Or did you plan it this way / All along / ‘Cause without suffering / Grace is hard to see / So maybe I'm right where / I’m supposed to be / And now / I’m seeing You so differently / All I can say is finally / And now / My eyes are open wide / If this is wrong Lord don’t make me / Don’t You make me right / Now I know that on my worst day / The way You love me it ain’t ever gonna change / What if it's never really been about what I do but what You did / Oh yes it is / This ain't wishful thinking it's just how it is / This ain't wishful thinking it's just how it is
