There's still hope... Despite our private struggles and our sometimes very public struggles. There's still hope.

Good News
Words & Music by Bennett Hughes ©2013

VERSE 1
I used to think I had this all wrapped up
Living and breathing just because.
No purpose behind my steps just walking… walking
But then the further I strayed, the less fun and sense it made:
to be on my own just walking. Walking.

PRE CHORUS
So tell me there’s something more.
Just need to hear it, hear some good good news.

CHORUS
Your past is dead and your future is bright
Your sins forgiven and your soul is a live
Lies may come but turn from them, He’s good.
Take it on faith cause He already paid
for your private relapses and public mistakes.
Some may tell you otherwise, but He’s good.
He’s good.

VERSE 2
I know it’s not right now
Living this life not knowing why I should live or die.
But then the further I stray
The less sense and more I pay.
Don’t want to be on my own just walking… walking.

BRIDGE
So for days gone sour
and lives messed up.
Yeah for hearts that broke
now refuse to love.
There’s hope in Christ.
There’s good, good news.
