Heavenly father hear my plea, I surrender all to Thee
I am wounded, I am weary, I am worn
But there is so much I want to say
But oh dear God I need to make a change
I know that you’re able to renew my heart this day
(Repeat)
Chorus:
Oh Jesus I’m yours (yours), I am yours (yours)
Oh (yours), Wont you hold me in your arms
I am yours (Yours), I am yours (I am yours),
Oh (yours), Please hold me in your arms
Don’t you ever let me go (Don’t ever let me go)
Drifted away, but I’m back to stay
Oh Lord, I am yours
(Repeat)
I need an absolute change, that only you can bring
Oh change (Oh change)
(Repeat)
Change, change….

As you see me today, once was lost to sin
I was as good as dead, when the Lord found me
He said come; the price has been paid
Your sins are forgiven, through my blood
Gave you a new name, as I set you free
(Repeat)
Chorus:
The blood of Jesus Christ; the blood of the blameless lamb
The blood to cleanse me, the blood to rescue me
What you see today, is the work of the blood
Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness
Of sin that’s God’s standard
So when the devil stood before God’s throne
To accuse me for all my sins
It took Christ to stand in my place
He tore his robe, to show stripes on his back
He was bruised on his hands and his feet
And opened my way; a new name
(Chorus)
Because of your great work Lord, We wanna say
Thank you. Oh thank you
You came down, thank you
Just to lift me up, so I thank you Lord
You left your throne, thank you
You had me in mind, thank you
What you see today, is the work
Nothing but the work of the blood
Jesus we adore you, We wanna say to you (Thank you)
Chorus 2:
For the blood (Thank you), for my life (Thank you)
For your grace (I thank you Lord)
For my peace (Thank you), For my joy (Thank you)
What you see today, is the work of the blood
You went to Calvary just to purchase me
(Chorus 2)
What you see today, is the work of the blood…

English Lyrics, South Africa Alright Lyrics, Filled Album, It's gonna be alright, Ntokozo Mbambo, Ntokozo Mbatha Leave a comment
Chorus:
It’s gonna be alright, alright, alright
It’s gonna be alright (Repeat)
You maybe going through pain and persecution
Trials and tribulations – going through the winter season
Clouded days and the darkest of nights
Just remember that the sun will shine again
God will see you through
(Chorus)
He’ll never leave you nor forsake you
So don’t despair, don’t you be dismayed
Just keep pressing (keep on pressing)
Keep confessing the word of the Lord
Better days are ahead (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Weeping may endure for the night;
But joy cometh in the morning light
So keeping smiling (don’t stop singing)
Keep your head, ’cause it’s gonna be alright
(Chorus)
Neighbor, it’s gonna be alright
He loves you, He cares!
