Album: The Elements
Writer: Bryan Fowler, Toby McKeehan
Hello sunshine, goodbye rain
Hello promise, I hope you’re here to stay
Ain’t nothin’ sweeter than welcomin’ new mercy every day
Hello sunshine, sure glad you came
Sure glad you came
Well, hello future
Goodbye yesterday
Your grass is greener
Than anywhere I’ve lived
You turn these troubled eyes
To watchin’ all my troubles wash away
Hello, future (hey)
We gon’ be okay
We gon’ be okay
We gon’ be okay
Hello purpose, you’ve alluded me
I thought I’d find you
In victory
I scaled the mountain (Hey)
Just to find nobody beside me
Hello purpose (Hey)
Don’t leave me be
Don’t leave me be
Don’t leave me be
Oh, don’t leave me be
Don’t leave me be
Hello Jesus
I hope You understand
My last departure was never planned
I came up empty with everyone and everywhere I’ve been
Hello Jesus
I’m home again
I’m home again
