WE TESTED POSITIVE

 I.

Tested positive for having faith in God

When it wasn't easy and things were rough

Went under the waves

And came through the storms

Went through the fire

And grevious burns

But I—

Just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last.

II.

I tested positive for having doubts

So many times when I cried out loud

Tears in the pillow, asking why 

Why the pain, Lord haven't I tried?

Why are things so freaking hard?!

Are you mean because I've been bad?

Everytime I just feel sad

Like you mixed my bread with sand

But I—

Just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last.

III.

Things were silent in the storm

The world watched as I beat the walls

Locked in, no one to help me out

I'm screaming loud without a sound

Wasn't chained, but I was bound

To worrying for God to come through

I understood when the tides turned

He was there all along

But those days were long and dark

And I—

Just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last.

IV.

I heard from a friend who heard from a friend 

This kind of faith is highly contagious

Like a virus, it's going to spread

She breathes, her joy infectious

You're going to hear from her

Because she just—

Tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last.

V.

I always had these negative thoughts in my head

And every night when I lay in bed

Why do I have to be the one wishing I was dead

'Cause nobody always cared

And life has always been so unfair

But I,

Just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last.

VI.

Many times when I felt sad, rejected and lonely,

Times when I felt I was failing and losing myself—

But He has been the only one there for me

Directed wonderful people to my side,

Times when I cried and had no one to lean on

He gave me reasons why I should hold on,

Hold on to life 

And gave me hope that sad phases in my life won't go on and on.

Cause I—

Just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last!

VII.

Always keeping my faith in Him from now on

And He'll always guide me, forevermore

Now here's my part after hearing from a friend

Another one He directed to me!

And we just—

Tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last!

We just tested positive for having faith in God,

And knowing that storms don't last!
