I’ve heard about the young waking up
Finding freedom on those pages we’d ripped up
Finding justice love and peace and the God who sees and weeps
At our misguided affections
Ohhhh
What if everything you knew wasn’t wrong
What if some of it was true all along
Maybe they were just confused when their voices pummeled you
With their misguided affection
What if some of it was good, even kind
What if the letters on those pages are right
Would you take a chance and read
Then sit a while with me we’ll talk into the night
Ohhhh
There is healing in the hurricane
As all the memories bring the truth back into frame
Would you open up your heart, let him be a part
Of your search for what was good
Oh there’s a name above all names
Who will carry you to safety
But he will not be moved
He’ll welcome you with open arms
And walk you through the hurting
He will comfort you
Ohhhhh
I’ve heard about the young waking up
Finding freedom on those pages we’d ripped up
Finding justice, love and peace and the God who sees and weeps
At our misguided affections
Find mercy love and peace
And the God who sees and weeps
At our misguided affections
On your search for love and peace
There’s a God who sees and weeps
At our misguided affections
