I heard the good news today,
And it stirred in my heart the beginnings of faith
That there’s a God who died for my sins.
If I’m living by faith I’ll live forever with him.

Chorus:
If you believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord confess it
Proclaim it.
And you believe in your heart God raised him from the grave
You will be saved.
Anyone who calls on his name
Will never be put to shame.
Because Jesus has shown us the way
To be with him in heaven, and live in his presence. (To chorus)

Jesus hung on a cross next to a thief
Who believed Jesus was a savior and a king.
He said to Jesus, “Remember me.”
And then Jesus promised him paradise,
“You’ll be there this day with me.” Oh! (To chorus)

Believe in your heart, confess with your mouth, you will be saved
Lord, God you are so good to me.
Good to me, oh Lord you’re so good to me.

Chorus:
Show me the way back home.
In my weakness, I can’t find it.
I can’t find it on my own.
But with your grace I know I’ll find my way back home.

I have sinned against you and chosen my own way.
Didn’t trust your plan. I didn’t have the faith.
Offending you who loves me so much.
I pray you’ll wash me clean, so I can feel your touch.

How long, Lord, will you hide your face from me?
How long must I suffer? My heart’s full of grief.
How long, Lord, will you keep yourself from me?
Shine upon me, Lord, and help me see. (To chorus)

Since Adam’s time you kept your promises.
I have been the one who put myself in your stead.
I now recommit to you with all my heart and soul.
I will be your son, and you my Lord. (To chorus)

My precious child,
You’ve already found your way back home.

I know that God is watching over me.
I trust He’ll lead me to a place of peace.
Mercy and love will surely follow me,
So I dance in the joy of the Lord.

I know that God is watching out for me.
He’s with me as I walk through scary streets,
And He has saved me from my enemies,
So I lift up the name of the Lord.

Chorus:
I know with you there is no lack,
And onto you I’m holding fast.
I know that you are gonna make me laugh.
Jehovah Jirah’s got my back.
God my provider’s got my back. (So relax.)

I know that God is pouring over me
All kinds of blessings I had not foreseen.
I want to lay my life before my king,
So I praise Him with love as I sing.

I will not fret about what I will eat.
I will not stress about no shoes on my feet.
I’m not upset about the things that I need.
I know the Lord will provide them for me.

I lost my wife, and my children, too,
And the family pets, and my business fell through.
Now I’ve lost my home, so I’ll have to move,
And I hurt my knees, and I broke a tooth.

Chorus:
Lord I know that you….are gonna see me through,
But what I miss the most…is giving back to you.
Now I feel all I have to give you….is my broken heart.
All I have to give….is my broken heart.
Still I will praise you….Oh, Lord.
Still I will praise you…Oh, Lord.

Now my friends think…I must be to blame,
And what I’ve done wrong…is now a guessing game.
Well, the good Lord gives, and He takes away,
And now I’ve found myself….in a desolate place.

I will praise the Lord my God.
I will lift His holy name…bless His name forever.
Hallelujah!

I come here every day to pray
To seek your face within the shade
Of this fig tree.
I cry out and I bow down
With my face upon the ground.
Lord, please hear my plea.
Lord, your people are enslaved.
We are humbled and ashamed.
Send Messiah here today, Oh.
Then I thought I heard God say,

Chorus: (In first chorus sing, “I SEE you.”)
“I saw you under your fig tree.
I saw you bowing before me
In sadness and in shame
Yet you honor my name.
Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.
Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.
I saw you.”

So I prayed again today,
And bowed down and sought God’s face
Beneath this fig tree.
There’s no future here for me
Casting nets upon the sea
Lord, what will become of me?
Then my brother came to me,
And said, “We’ve found Him come and see.”
At first I doubted then believed, Oh.
When Lord Jesus said to me, (to chorus)

Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.
And I saw you under your fig tree
I saw you bowing before me
With no future and no hope
Now I’ve come to bring you both.
The work I’ve begun in you
I intend to see it through.
Only the truth, there’s no deceit within you.
Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.
Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.
Truly you’re one of Israel’s sons.

My Lord and my God,
You hear the prayers of your sons and daughters.
My Lord and my God,
You hear forgive and heal the land, my Lord.
Hallelujah!
