I was
sittin' by my
window on a rainy afternoon
Everything inside my head
was playin' out of tune
I was thinkin' of the fool I'd
made of me the night before
In front of
God and everyone I'd sinned
and sinned some more
I thought of all the things I'd done and
went to the things I'd said.
I wallowed in self -pity,
hung my worried head.
Right when I was so far down that
even up looked wrong,
that's when
Jesus gave to me the chorus of this song.
He said,
Satan, the accuser,
has been whispering in your ear.
You just tell him you're forgiven,
he's got no business here
Cause it doesn't matter what you've done,
it matters what you'll be
There's no condemnation when the
sun has set you free
Well, I could say that right away the
sun burst through the clouds
And I just started singing on
that chorus right out loud
But actually, I moped around
and blew another day
Before I let myself accept the
words I'd heard him say
He said
Satan, the accuser,
has been whispering in your ear
You just tell him you're forgiven,
he's got no business here
Cause it doesn't matter what you've done,
it matters what you'll be
There is no condemnation when the
Son has set you free
So I can't criticize you now
if you want to take your time
And cling to all your problems
just the way I clung to mine
But now you've got the answer
Jesus wanted you to know
He'll take your guilt and sin away
if you'll just let them go
And if
Satan the accuser has been
whispering in your ear
You just tell him you're forgiven,
he's got no business here
Cause it doesn't matter what you've done,
it matters what you'll be
There is no condemnation when
the sun has set you free
There is no condemnation when the
sun has set you free
you
