MercyMe - Best News Ever Lyrics






Some say, "Don't give up"
And hope that your good is good enough
Head down, keep on working
If you can earn it, you deserve it
Some say, "Push on through"
After all, it's the least that you can do
But don't buy what they're selling
It couldn't be further from the truth

What if I were the one to tell you
That the fight's already been won
Well, I think your day's about to get better
What if I were the one to tell you
That the work's already been done
It's not good news
It's the best news ever

Some say, "Don't ask for help"
God helps the ones who help themselves
So press on, get it right
Otherwise, get left behind
Some say "He's keeping score"
"So try hard, then try a little more"
But hold up, if this were true
Explain to me what the cross is for!

What if I were the one to tell you
That the fight's already been won
Well, I think your day's about to get better
What if I were the one to tell you
That the work's already been done
It's not good news
It's the best news ever
Best news ever

So won't you, come
Come all you weary and you burdened
You heavy-laden and you hurting
For all of you with nothing left
Come and find rest!

What if I were the one to tell you
That the fight's already been won
Well, I think your day's about to get better
What if I were the one to tell you
That the work's already been done
It's not good news
It's the best news ever!
Best news ever...

It's not good news
It's the best news ever
Best news ever
It's not good news
It's the best news ever

    You cannot find anywhere in the bible where it says God helps those who help themselves. Instead God helped us when we could not help ourselves by sending Jesus to die for us.

    Without CHRIST WE ARE NOTHING, WITH CHRIST WE ARE EVERYTHING. THROUGH CHRIST ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.

  19. J.... S....

    As I listened to this song by accident,
    Something really happened to me which can't easily be expressed.
    A release from the burnden caused of sense of incompetence and incomplision.
    Thank You, Lord Jesus!

  28. K.... M....

    I'm so glad that I've found this song today! I've been feeling hopeless lately. I already did whatever I can do. Now I'm left with nothing. I'm lost and I don't know what to do. My fiancee has been struggling with growing phase, he's going through a rough process. Back then he was broken with dark past and a lot of bad habits. But today, God help him to change. He does change a lot from he was back then. But at some point, he became so depressed with the process and started to blame his life. Deep down, there's a part of Satan who doesn't want him to become God's new creation. I've been praying for him. But I realise, the battle is in God's hands, not mine. For several months, I've been getting the same exact message from God. It's in Exodus 14:4. The lord will fight for you, you need only to be still. And today, I almost lost hope again. But I accidentally found this song and I remember His promises again. I know everything will be okay at the end. The process might seems scary and difficult. But I believe God is there with my fiancee. He's been battling the Satan who tried to take over my fiancee again. But one thing I know for sure, my god always win His battle! Amen! 😇

    K.... M....

    Roselly Solichan The evil one always seeks to keep us separated from God. That is his primary purpose in this world. We have to keep praying daily to Jesus, repenting of our sins and declaring his truth and goodness over our lives. He has already won the victory over satan but we must stay connected to our power source in Jesus. Make sure you pray together as there is strength in unity. Stay strong and blessings to you both in Jesus precious name. 😀😀😀

    My favorite line is "then explain to me what the cross is for" every time. Such a great song!! Best news ever : Jesus!!!💗

  49. S.... w....

    I am having some struggles at the beginning of middle school. Everyone around me makes dirty jokes and swears. And, all my friends are moving on and leaving me out because I’m not that’s popular and I might make their reputation bad. I’m having to stay strong but it’s hard. I cry myself to sleep. I have no friends. I’m alone. At least that’s what I thought until I remember that god is a good god. I am never alone. He will always be my side. The lord has been sending me the number 222 as a sign a lot lately. In the end, this song really speaks to me. It’s hard being called “the jesus girl”

    S.... w....

    Someone who edits Jesus said life would be hard for his followers.
    You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Stay Strong and blessings to you in Jesus precious name. 😀😀😀

  65. S.... S....

    🥰🙏🏼 I’ve lost my way trying to get back. Took custody of two granddaughters 10 & 11. Harder at my age than I ever thought. They miss their mom my daughter but she’s not doing much to get them back. Living in home no electric or water ( with this heat on 7/20/19 it’s horrible) and still won’t leave her abusive husband who won’t give up drugs for no one. Could use little prayer if anyone could. Sorry to put this on a YouTube channel but I guess maybe it’s a way to vent without my family knowing I’m really lost most days

    S.... S....

    yeah no one fucking cares

    S.... S....

    I will pray for you

  66. C.... L....

    Best message ever.....

  70. J.... B....

    The best message I've ever taken from this song is, humility and faith... Both are not taught but found!. So... Won't you come... Come all you weary and you burdened...♥️

  71. B.... S....

    who would dislike this video??!!

  72. T.... P....

    "God helps those who help themselves" in the lyrics -- not biblical. Too bad that Mercy Me did not review this or check this before publishing the song. Not helpful and disappointing from a great artist.

    T.... P....

    They are saying that that is what some people say...then they go on to say it couldn't be further from the truth!!!

  73. D.... B....

    LOVE THIS!! So glad to know this song! I’ll sing this over and over and over!!! 🤗

  74. M.... I....

    I praise you my Lord!
    Glorify, Glory be To God!!

    "God helps the ones who help themselves."
    Excuse me? God helps everyone and anyone. God is always there for me, even when I don't want to help myself. Be careful these days with these modern preachers and songs. Pray about it, and look deeper into things. God Bless

    D.... D....

    Did you actually listen to the lyrics? they were singing AGAINST that phrase.
