Lyrics

This goes out to you and you and you  
You know who you are  
  
Hmm hmm hmm  
When glory days turn to stormy nights  
You must have been so petrified  
Didn't you, didn't you feel so cold  
You against the world in a losing fight  
Captive of your demons inside  
  
So you sought an enemy  
(I'm not your enemy. He lives in you, you know it's true)  
Like times before to mock ignorantly  
(But the Lord said love, love your enemy so just...)  
Take heed to the Word it's time  
Check Proverbs 19:29  
Don't cry  
  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
  
I truly wanted solidarity  
Still wearing my blinders back then  
(So much I didn't see)  
I weep for what I dreamed we all could be  
I'll keep you in prayer till the end  
  
Still bruised, still walk on eggshells  
Same frightened child, hide to protect myself  
(Can't believe I still need to protect myself from you)  
But you can't manipulate me like before  
Examine first John chapter 4 verse 4  
  
And  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
  
Be strong in the Lord and power of His might  
  
If my shows of gratitude are minuscule  
Inside your mind, sorry  
(I'm so sorry, please forgive me)  
There's only so much I can do I love you and did all that I could  
  
Maybe when you're cursing me  
You don't feel so incomplete  
But we've all made mistakes  
Felt the guilt and self-hate  
  
I know you've been there for me plenty  
Maybe still got love for me  
But let him without sin cast the first stone brethren  
But who remains standing then  
Not you not I see Philippians 4:9  
(Put it into practice and the God of Peace will be with you)  
  
So  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
I wish you well  
  
(He who the Son sets free is free indeed)  
No weapon formed against me shall prosper  
Surely God is my salvation  
I will trust and not be afraid  
The Lord, the Lord is my salvation  
I will trust in Him  
Yes, I know that I know that I know that I know  
  
But I have had God's help to this very day  
And so I stand here and testify  
To small and great alike  
So the more you curse me  
The more you're blessing me  
The Word said it  
Love your enemies  
  
Do good to those who curse you  
Pray for those who mistreat you  
Psalms 129:2  
They have greatly oppressed me from my youth  
But they have not gained victory over me  
(In Jesus' name)  
  
I wish you well  
  
He that keeps his mind state on the Lord  
He will keep them in perfect peace
