LYRICS:
"21 Years"
Woke up cuz the light poured in
Day 2 let the flood begin
Day 1 left me in my bed
I can barely remember it
Heart shattered in a thousand ways
They tell me pain gonna come in waves
They tell me I’m gonna be ok
I’m still waiting for the first to break
How could You give and then take him away
Suddenly end could You not let it fade
What I would give for a couple of days, a couple of days
Is it just across the Jordan
Or a city in the stars
Are you singing with the angels
Are you happy where you are
Well until this show is over
And you run into my arms
God has you in heaven
But I have you in my heart
(hey, ay, hey, ay, hey, hey, ay, hey ay)
I have you in my heart
(hey, ay, hey, ay, hey, hey, ay, hey ay)
I just can’t make sense of this
Everything is so dissonant
Somebody said he was meant for this
But I’m just straight missing him
I wanna wake up to your laugh at 2
Catch you when you steal my shoes
Say good morning, afternoon
Talk you through those “Alex blues”
Listen to your latest beats
Talk about what the lyrics mean
Venmo you another loan
See you do your 2nd show
You said you’d turn, you would turn it around
Thought that you had time to straighten it out
Told me that you were my prodigal son
But this isn’t home
(hey, ay, hey, ay, hey, hey, ay, hey ay)
I have you in my heart
(hey, ay, hey, ay, hey, hey, ay, hey ay)
Did he see You from a long way off
Running to him with a Father’s heart
Did You wrap him up inside Your arms
And let him know, that he’s home
21 years makes a man full-grown
21 years, what a beautiful loan
21 years, I loved every one
Thank you, Lord, for my beautiful son
LYRICS:
""See The Light""
We gon’ see the light (see the light)
We gon’ see the light (see the light)
You and me, yeah, you and me
We gon’ see the light
We gon' see the light (see the light)
We gon' see the light (see the light)
You and me, yeah, you and me
So go on and lift your hands up to where your help is comin' from
And let your burdens, let 'em fade away
So go on and lift your hands up to where your help is comin' from
And let your burdens, let 'em fade away
So go on and lift your hands up to where your help is comin' from
And let your burdens, let 'em fade away
So go on and lift your hands up to where your help is comin' from
And let your burdens, let 'em fade away
Some things will never be the same
Some things are only for a season (season)
And just the thought of letting go
Well, it's brought you to your knees
But if we can make it, we can make it through the ni-ight
I can promise that the sun is gonna ri-ise
You wake up just a little bit stronger
So hold on just a little bit longer
'Cause it don't matter where you come from
I know we can get through this (ooh)
It might feel like it's been so long
But we keep on keepin' on (keepin' on) (ooh)
It might feel like an uphill climb
Always some kind of battle (battle)
But you got more than you on your side
And we gon see the light
We gon' see the light (see the light)
We gon' see the light (see the light)
You and me, yeah, you and me
We gon' see the light

Toby & Amanda: God ushered my 27 year old only son home to Heaven, my wild child on Valentine’s Day! Nate’s favorite verse was John 3:16. The grief nearly kills us …. but somehow we continue to live and breathe. Sometimes I can hardly believe I’m still here & he’s gone. I too grew up in a devout Christian family & I’ve been listening to your music since DC Talk. Thank you for all the music you write and bring to life on the stage. Everything you say in the lyrics of your songs resonates deeply, spiritually, physically, emotionally and psychologically inside of me. I scream out the songs driving in my car, dance like a crazy woman and look like a happy lunatic when I’m listening to you!! Your concerts are so incredible there are no words to describe the feelings that surface. Never stop pouring out your heart to your fans and all the listeners who will hear about God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit ❤️🙏🏼✝️ I know when we get to heaven our boys will be there to welcome us and we will all be together again! Until then ……. Saw Toby and Diversity in Glendale, AZ on 2/12 with Crowder!! They rocked the packed house at Gila Arena. I sat and cried when he sang 21 years, hits me deep in my heart and soul.

The fact that TobyMac is still singing is incredible.

I've watched this song over 100x. Beautifully done, led by God and the holy spirit. It makes me think of my brother who died by suicide on 3/23/2020 due to Covid restrictions/ shut downs.

How the sting of death hurts. But the glory of God outshines the hurt. Thank you Toby for this song.

Amen brother 🙏 brings tears to my eyes. I cant wait till the day we all meet Jesus face to face!

Can you imagine the heart it takes to get up and do this song? I mean you can feel the pain in his voice toward the end, when he sings back up to his back up singer who takes over for him... 6:32 is beautiful - made me cry

We just lost my brother to fentanyl over dose December 5th. I came across this video to send to my mom. This is her 2nd son she’s lost. But her faith remains in The Lord. Thank you for making beautiful art that other grieving parents and families can relate to. My heart hurts for my brothers loss but I know he’s in Jesus arms now free from pain and addiction. ❤️
