I Wish You Well

[Intro: Mariah Carey]
This goes out to you and you and you
You know who you are

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
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

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I wish you well (I... wish you well)
I wish you well (I... wish you well)
I wish you well

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
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)
Examine 1 John 4:4

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Bishop Clarence Keaton]
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

[Bridge: Mariah Carey]
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)

[Verse 3: Mariah Carey]
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

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
So I wish you well
I wish you well
I wish you well
— He who the son sets free is free indeed

[Outro: Mariah Carey & Bishop Clarence Keaton]
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
