Chris Rice - Good News lyrics

Well you already know life ain’t easy

‘Cause you’ve had more than your share of hard times

Been so long since you heard the sweet music

Or seen the blue sky

Feels like nobody knows how you’re hurtin’

And you’ve gotten so tired of hidin’ your pain

And you’d give anything to lay down your burden

And just fly away

Oh, but don’t go flyin’ away

‘Cause I’ve got good news

It’s water for the thirsty

Comfort for the weary

Good news

I’ve got good news

There’s hope and peace and freedom

Jesus came to bring ‘em to you

And ain’t it about time

Ain’t it about time

Ain’t it about time for some good news

All those talk shows and war zones in the headlines

Well they can’t come close to your chaos inside

So you wanna find a way to leave behind your troubles

And get off this ride

‘Cause it seems like all you’ve been hearin’ is condemnation

And the last thing you need is more shame

Well even your preacher says the Lord is out to get you

But He ain’t that way

Oh no, the Lord, He ain’t that way

‘Cause I’ve got good news

It’s water for the thirsty

Comfort for the weary

Good news

I’ve got good news

There’s hope and peace and freedom

Jesus came to bring ‘em to you

And ain’t it about time

Ain’t it about time

Ain’t it about time for some good news
