Good News (In a Bad News World)
And as the oceans rise above highest hills
The ship I sail on carries me through
When the earth is shakin'
And stones come-a-tumblin' down
The rock I stand on still doesn't move
I Look to the good news in a bad news world
I put my trust in you as your plans unfurl
Your wing is my refuge when the vultures swirl
When life gives me coals you're like diamonds and precious pearls
Close the papers, shut the tube
'neath the sun there's nothing new
Wars and rumours spread like plagues
The good news of the Gospel stays the same
While the winds are raging
And tearin' down tallest trees
I'll build my nest in heaven with you
When my hands are aching
And thinned down to skin and bone
I'll remember His were pierced in place of my own
Close the papers, shut the tube
'neath the sun there's nothing new
Wars and rumours spread like plagues
The good news of the Gospel stays the same
Hey have you read the headlines?
The ship I sail on carries me through
When the earth is shakin'
And stones come-a-tumblin' down
The rock I stand on still doesn't move
I Look to the good news in a bad news world
I put my trust in you as your plans unfurl
Your wing is my refuge when the vultures swirl
When life gives me coals you're like diamonds and precious pearls
Close the papers, shut the tube
'neath the sun there's nothing new
Wars and rumours spread like plagues
The good news of the Gospel stays the same
While the winds are raging
And tearin' down tallest trees
I'll build my nest in heaven with you
When my hands are aching
And thinned down to skin and bone
I'll remember His were pierced in place of my own
Close the papers, shut the tube
'neath the sun there's nothing new
Wars and rumours spread like plagues
The good news of the Gospel stays the same
Hey have you read the headlines?
