Mariah Carey - I Wish You Well lyrics

This goes out to you and you and you
You know who you are

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 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 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 still weep still weep still weep)
I'll keep you in prayer till the end
(oh still bruised)
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 (no)

And I wish you well (I wish you well)
I wish you well (I wish you well)
I wish you well be strong in the Lord and
The 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 I did all that I could
(I 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 that you've been there for 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 Phillipians 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
What time I'm afraid I will trust in the Lord
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 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
