Looking for You Lyrics


I've been down so long, I've been hurt for so long
There were times I thought I'd never see the break of day
It was hard for me to see Your plan for me
And I tried to believe struggling won't last alwaysSee night after night, night after night, night after night
I prayed Lord, "Don't take Your joy from me"
And then late one night, then late one night
I read in Your love letter that it's gonna get betterDon't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed no one can keep me away from YouYou been so good to us
You brought us from a mighty long way
That's why we love You, come onWhen my enemies tried to come for me
And they thought that my world was coming to an end
All the while You knew that I would make it through
I feel closer to You now than when I first beganJesus You are, Jesus You are, Jesus You are
You are my sunlight after the rain
Wherever You are, wherever you are
I just wanna be near You I'm so glad I can hear YouDon't You know that I've been looking for You?

I realize nothing else will satisfy me
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed no one can keep me away from YouDon't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed no one can keep me away from YouHere we go now, here we go now
Don't stop now, let's go now
In the front now, in the back now
Let's go now, ladiesUh oh, uh uh oh
That's for the struggle
Uh oh, uh uh oh
That's for the pain
Uh oh, uh uh oh
That's for those dark nights
Uh oh, uh uh oh
Come on, let's sing it with us ya'llJesus You are, Jesus You are, Jesus You are
You are my sunlight after the rain
Wherever You are, wherever You are
I just wanna be near You I'm so glad I can hear YouDon't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed no one can keep me away from YouDon't You know that I've been looking for You?
I realize nothing else will satisfy me
I'm so glad I found You
Now that I'm changed no one can keep me away from You(Uh oh, uh uh oh)
So I want you to remember
(Uh oh, uh uh oh)
No matter what happens tomorrow
(Uh oh, uh uh oh)
God's got it all under control
(Uh oh, uh uh oh)
All things brought together

A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by his aunt, Gertrude Franklin. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven. After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording career.

He has integrated hip hop styles with gospel themes in albums such as The Nu Nation Project and God's Property, which achieved success on the Billboard Pop Album, R&B and gospel charts.
Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music, including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal Lewis, Pastor Shirley Caesar, Jaci Valesquez, and Willie Neal Johnson. He also has displayed a willingness to collaborate with artists in the secular realm, including Bono, Mary J. Blige, Crystal Lewis, and R Kelly in the hit single, "Lean on Me."
