Jacob Collier – Witness Me (feat. Shawn Mendes, Stormzy & Kirk Franklin)
Ok, not strictly a hymn… but an uplifting tune nonetheless!
You tell me you’re broken (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Tell me it’s over now (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
You say you’re done hopin’ (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
You tell me all the lights gone out (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Well, maybe you’re lost then (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Maybe you’re far from home (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
If you only keep walkin’ (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
You never will walk alone (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
‘Cause when I’m with you
There’s nothin’ that I wouldn’t do
You’re the one that I’ve waited for
To bring out the best in me (Ooh)
I’m out in the blue
I’m holdin’ my hand out to you
You’re the one that I’ve waited for
I’m holdin’ onto you
I’m with you (I’m with you)
I’m with you hеre (I’m with you here)
You’rе the light I need (You’re the light I need)
In the dark I see (In the dark I see)
I’m with you (I’m with you)
I’m with you here (I’m with you here)
You are all I see (You are all I see)
You witness me (Woah, witness me)
I know we haven’t seen each other much (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I’ve been gone for the last six months (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
And life isn’t easy (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
So call when you need me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Dad’s sick and your brother’s not there (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
More drink ’cause nobody cares
But I believe in you deeply
You know you can lean on me
I’m here for you (I’m here for you)
In whatever you’re goin’ through (Nothin’ that I wouldn’t do)
Whatever it is, you can tell me
I know you’d do the same
Chorus
Yeah, we made it further than we thought
Only hearin’ that they’d done was when they heard us in the court
We grew up in a place where bloody murder was the sport (Oh, woah, woah, witness me)
I know a few gold medalists (Eeh)
And the thing that they serve, and you can’t serve it on a fork (Eeh)
I’d rather it was bailiffs that was bangin’ at your door
You can read about it, but you’ve heard it all before (Oh, woah, woah, witness me)
Have mercy on ’em, Lord
I know You’re with them in the storm even though it’s hard to see
Had to print you on a shirt ’cause I knew you to a T (Eeh)
In a different situation, I imagine who you’d be (Eeh)
Have mercy on ’em (Oh, woah, witness me), and be with ’em (Oh, woah, witness me)
And if grace doesn’t cut it, then Your mercy will suffice
In this cold, dark world, we just need a little light (Ooh)
Chorus
