‘Times’ is a song reminding us that the Bible is a story about failures. It’s not a story about a bunch of moral heroes. Look at David and you look at Peter and you look at Abraham. These are failures that God has redeemed. So the song “Times” is just a prayer because we’re all struggling. Then God...
[Verse 1]
I know I need You
I need to love You, Lord
I love to see You but it's been so long
I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
I need to hear You
Is that so wrong?
[Interlude]
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
[Verse 2]
Now You pull me near You
When we're close I fear You
Still I'm afraid to tell you all that I've done
Are You done forgiving?
Or can You look past my pretending, Lord
I'm so tired of defending what I've become
What have I become?
[Interlude]
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
[Bridge]
I hear You say
"My love is over, it's underneath
It's inside, it's in between
The times you doubt me
When you can't feel
The times that you question
"Is this for real?"
The times you're broken
The times that you mend
The times you hate me
And the times that you bend
Well my love is over, it's underneath
It's inside, it's in between
These times you're healing
And when your heart breaks
The times that you feel like you've fallen from grace
The times you're hurting
The times that you heal
The times you go hungry and are tempted to steal
In times of confusion
In chaos and pain
I'm there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame
I'm there through your heartache
I'm there in the storm
My love I will keep you by my power alone
I don't care where you've fallen or where you have been
I'll never forsake you
My love never ends
It never ends."
[Interlude]
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Times was written by Mike Donehey.
Times was produced by Jason Ingram & Rusty Varenkamp & Phillip LaRue.
Tenth Avenue North released Times on Tue May 20 2008.
Mike Donehey in the band’s concerts will tell the story about when he was trying to find out God’s will for his life. He said he was struggling so much to figure it out that he started crying, and that’s why the chorus is just, “Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh.” He later explains what he was crying about, which...
