Even If The World Hates You by Richard Shekari from Abuja, Fct Nigeria

even if the world hates you

verse 1:
dark clouds above my head as i passed through the storm,
fed with their lies and hatred, blinded by this wicked world.

lost in a tunnel of tears with no light in sight,
i had to on your name.

jesus, your name has saved my broken soul;
there is power in your name.

chorus:
if i don’t praise you, the oceans will still roar, o lord;
the rocks and clouds will sing to your holy name.

if the world hates you, i am here — hold my hand, dear lord;
do as you will, i’ll sing to your glory, lord.

verse 2:
lord, i upon your name, for you have borne my shame;
take my heart and my soul — lord, accept my praise.

i can’t live without your love; consume me with your flame.
you’re my rock and my song — lord, you are my strength. *chorus*

bridge:
knowing my weakness, lord, you died upon the cross for me;
seeing my heart, o lord, you made me your chosen one.

to show your love, dear lord, you bore all the blame for me;
and on the third day, lord, you rose and gave me victory. *chorus*
