Dear John Lyrics

by Mandisa

Dear John, how you doing?
I've been thinking about you
I'm not sure how to say it
But I've been praying daily
For some kind of a breakthrough
I've said this a thousand times
And I know you don't see my side
But I do it cause I love you
So dear John, here's the truth

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e110028-mandisa~dear_john_lyrics.html ]
There's freedom on the other side of
Things that keep us tied up and afraid
There's hope in every situation
No matter what you're facing everyday
But it's up to you, you get to choose
Your Father is waiting there with open arms

Dear John, people hurt you
And you know I've been hurt too
There's no way to escape it
Don't let your pain be wasted
No don't let it get the best of you
Cause God took my broken parts
And gave me a brand new start
Now I'm walking, breathing living proof
And dear John, He can do this for you

There's freedom on the other side of
Things that keep us tied up and afraid
There's hope in every situation
No matter what you're facing everyday
But it's up to you, you get to choose
Your Father is waiting there with open arms

Dear John, it's not a list of do's and don't's
Not a record of your faults
He gave His life to pay it all
Dear John, He loves you just the way you are
You are forgiven by His scars
Just open up your heart (your heart)

There's freedom on the other side of
Things that keep us tied up and afraid
There's hope in every situation
No matter what you're facing everyday
But it's up to you, you get to choose
Your Father is waiting there with open arms
Dear John
Dear John
Dear John
Dear John
