....i know the weight of this world can take you down like gravity, and i know the current of yourself can take you out, out to sea, but hold on...
I’m the one with big mistakes, big regrets and bigger breaks
Than I ever care to confess
Oh but You’re the one who looks at me and sees what I was meant to be
More than just a beautiful mess
You are everything that I live for
Everything that I can’t believe is happening
You’re standing right in front of me
With arms wide open
All I know is every day is filled with hope
You are everything that I believe for
And I can’t help but breathe you in
Breathe again, Feeling all this life within
Every single beat of my heart
You’re everything good in my life
Everything honest and true
And all of those stars hanging up in the sky
Could never shine brighter than You
There's a girl in the corner with tear stains on her eyes
From the places she's wandered and the shame she can't hide
She says, "How did I get here? I'm not who I once was.
And I'm crippled by the fear that I've fallen too far to love"
But don't you know who you are, What's been done for you?
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
'Cause this is not about what you've done,
But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been,
But where your brokenness brings you to
This is not about what you feel,
But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved.
Why are you striving these days?
Why are you trying to earn grace?
Why are you crying?
Let me lift up your face, just don't turn away
And I'll be by your side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don't fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way
Jesus, can You show me just how far the east is from the west?
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been rising up in me again
You know the effort i have given and you know exactly what it cost
And though my innocence was taken not everything is lost,
not everything is lost, no
Your love, Your love the only thing that matters is Your love
Give me Your eyes for just one second
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me Your heart for the one's forgotten
Well the thing I find most amazing in amazing grace
Is the chance to give it out
Maybe that's what love is all about
I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
We were made to be courageous and we're taking back the fight
We were made to be courageous and it starts with us tonight
The only way we'll ever stand is on our knees with lifted hands
Make us courageous
Who am I, that the eyes that see our sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again?
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain and calm the storm in me?
I love you more than the words in my brain can express
I can't imagine even loving you less Lord, I love the way you hold me
