Everybody’s got a blank page
A story they’re writing today
A wall that they’re climbing
You can carry the past on your shoulders
Or you can start over
Regrets, no matter what you've gone through
Jesus, He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over
Don’t let your heart be troubled
Don’t be afraid
To the broken-hearted that wished that they’d
Never been born, never been torn
never sinned, never disobeyed
I know you think there’s no hope, but that ain’t true, Jesus saves!
I know you feelin’ regret
(Like I) brought this all on myself
(Like I) messed it up big time, and this time I don’t deserve God’s help
(Thinking) how can God forgive me after knowin’ what I did (can He?)
After knowin’ that I hid from Him, and I stayed away and backslid (listen)
Jesus came for the sick (so true)
Jesus came for the weak (amen)
Jesus came to give good news and have set the captives free (amen)
Jesus came for the poor (amen)
Jesus came with the keys (amen)
Jesus came to remove the chains so the prisoners are released (amen)
Everybody’s got a blank page

You can carry the past on your shoulders
Or you can start over
Regrets, no matter what you've gone through
Jesus, He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over
See, His love is deeper than the ocean floor
un to His arms like an open door
God the Father sent the Son
So men can come and be free and ain’t gotta run no more (that's what He said)
Come to me, all who are weary; with heavy burdens, I’ll give you rest
Separated you from your sin, as far as the east is from the west (He said)
Thrown in the sea of forgetfulness
What sin? What offense?
And when them waves come crashing in, I’ll calm the winds in your defense (that's what He said)
So, whatever it is that you’ve done
He put that punishment on His Son
You’ll never come under His

Beijing has overtaken New York as the city with the highest number of billionaires for the first time, a new report by China-based firm Hurun says.
A total of 100 billionaires are now living in the Chinese capital, compared with 95 in New York, the report said. Shanghai, China's centre of commerce, came in fifth place. Hurun, which tracks wealth in China, has released an annual Global Rich List for the past five years measuring billionaires' wealth in US dollars. It found that Beijing had welcomed 32 new billionaires since last year, allowing it to vault past New York which it calculated only saw four new billionaires. Overall, China has overtaken the US as the country with the highest number of billionaires. However, the top 10 billionaires in Hurun's list is still dominated by Americans.
Ministers from EU and Balkan nations are meeting in Brussels to try to heal divisions over a migrant crisis that could threaten the bloc's survival.
Austria, Serbia and Macedonia have taken steps to restrict entry to migrants, angering Greece, which fears the controls will cause a bottleneck. The rift places further strain on a common EU migration policy, already in disarray over the surge in migration. More than 100,000 migrants have reached Europe this year, most via the Balkans. European Council president Donald Tusk has warned that the failure to make progress towards resolving the crisis could increase the likelihood of the UK voting to leave the EU this year. The EU interior ministers meeting in Brussels will hear plans drawn up by Austria and eight Balkan countries that seek to restrict the numbers entering their borders.

The measures include fingerprinting all entrants and turning back anyone without a passport or holding fake documents. The countries have also pledged to accept only those they deem to be in need of protection, which has already been interpreted by some governments as meaning only Syrians and Iraqis. Macedonia enacted the measures at its border with Greece over the weekend, barring entry to Afghans, who make up many of the migrants. Austrian Interior Minister Johanna Mikl-Leitner described the measures as a "chain reaction of reason" and warned that the crisis could threaten the EU's survival if it was not brought under control. But the plans drew sharp criticism from Greece, which threatened to block all decisions at an upcoming EU migration summit if member states did not agree to take in quotas of migrants. Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said his country was turning into a "permanent warehouse of souls" and should not be left to deal with the crisis alone. "From now on, Greece will not agree to deals if we do not secure the mandatory sharing of the burden and responsibility proportionally among member states," Mr Tsipras said.
Adele may have swept the board at the 2016 Brits, but there's always more to the show than the awards.
On a night of joy and disappointment, stolen kisses and spectacular performances, who were the real winners and losers at the O2 Arena?
Most humiliated brother

However, it transpires that Lucy is Bay's long-term girlfriend. His brother's name is, in fact, Alex. Which only goes to show the importance of punctuating your acceptance speech.

Best red carpet rant
Image copyrightEPA"The music industry's a bit like Crufts," complained Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis. "It's all about hairstyles and who's got the best training and pedigree." "In guitar music, it definitely feels like there's been a brain drain. There's a lot of [bands] dressing up in parents' clothes and acting out pastiche-like tropes. I'd like to see a return of edgy, unpredictable, wild guitar music."
When actor Sanjay Dutt left a prison in the western Indian city of Pune on Thursday, he walked away with some experience of making paper bags and being a radio disc jockey.
Dutt was sentenced for firearms offences linked to the 1993 Mumbai blasts which killed 257 people and injured 713. He was convicted of buying firearms from the bombers but said the weapons were necessary in order to defend his family during the Hindu-Muslim rioting of 1993. The actor was moved to the Yerwada jail in May 2013 to finish his five-year jail term. But owing to his good behaviour and positive activities like running a radio programme, he was recently granted a remission of 144 days.
Intense interest
His early release, however, has sparked outrage with critics saying that Dutt had already been granted an unreasonable number of parole and furlough leaves owing to his celebrity status. Meanwhile, there is intense interest in the media about his life inside the jail. Dutt lived in a 8x10ft (2.4m x 3m) cell and wore the white uniform of prisoners. He had a 100 sq ft garden in front of his cell, where he was allowed to stroll under the watchful eyes of four guards. According to a former fellow inmate, the actor had been resigned to his fate of the unavoidable jail time, but knew he could be released early if he behaved well.

If he walked to the common area, he would be accompanied by four policemen. If he interacted with other prisoners, the conversations would be listened into. "I would speak to him often as I was working as the librarian at the prison," said the former inmate. "Baba, as he is affectionately known, would borrow at least two books every week. He used to read extensively, mainly Hindi literature from Munshi Premchand."
Spiritual reading
The former inmate added that the actor would "remain immersed in newspapers". "He had little else to do. In the common area, we had one TV set for every 150 prisoners. But since Baba's cell was a high-security one, he did not have that luxury," he added. Hitesh Jain, Dutt's lawyer, said that the actor also developed a "spiritual inclination" during his time in the prison. "He was doing a lot of spiritual reading. These are the things which keep a person encouraged, and provide strength to pass the whole term," said Jain. Speaking about his daily schedule, officers at the Yerwada prison said that Dutt would wake up at six in the morning. He would take a shower after which he would be served tea and breakfast. The jail staff would then bring him material to make bags from newspapers. He would spend most of his mornings working, earning 45 rupees (47p; 66 cents) for 100 bags. A little before noon, he would be taken to the radio studio where he would present a programme on 'Radio YCP' (Yerwada Central Prison), the jail's internal radio station.

He would then return to his cell at around 14:00, have lunch and remain there for an hour before again hosting his programme on the radio station. Dinner would be served by 17:30 and the actor would stay locked in his cell from 18:00 until the next morning.
'One of us'
His radio programme was popular among the inmates. "He would write his own scripts, and would usually speak about reforms during his radio sessions," a jail officer said. "He would speak about prison life, how the prisoners could survive it, and how their rehabilitative processes should be once they leave prison." The officer added that the actor would often repeat his dialogues from popular Munnabhai films and play songs to entertain his listeners. The actor definitely made some fans with his radio skills. "Baba might be a big deal outside those prison walls, but inside, he was one of us. He even met my wife and mother during one of their prison visits," the former fellow inmate said. "My family was elated on meeting him, but to me, and to all of us prisoners, he was ordinary. Prison does that to you. The barracks snatch your worth and render you ordinary, irritatingly ordinary, even if you are a superstar." Puja Changoiwala is a Mumbai-based independent journalist.
