sometimes it's embarrassing
to talk to You
to hold a conversation with
the only one who sees right through
this version of myself i try to hide behind
i'll bury my face
because my disgrace will leave me terrified

and sometimes i'm so thankful for Your loyalty
You love regardless of
the mistakes i make will spoil me

my confidence is, in a sense, a gift you've given me
and i'm satisfied to realize You're all i'll ever need

You looked into my life and never stopped
and You're thinking all my thoughts
are so simple
but so beautiful

and You recite my words right back to me
before i even speak
You let me know
i am understood

and sometimes i spend my time
just trying to escape

i work so hard so desperately
in an attempt to create space
cause i want distance
from the utmost important thing i know
i see your love
then turn my back
and beg for you to go

You looked into my life and never stopped
and You're thinking all my thoughts
are so simple
but so beautiful
and You recite my words right back to me
before i even speak
You let me know
i am understood

You're the only one
who understands completely
You're the only one who knows me
yet still loves completely


and sometimes the place i'm at
is at a loss for words
if i think of something worthy
i know that its already Yours
and through the times i've faded and You've outlined me again
You've just patiently waited
to bring me back and then


You looked into my life and never stopped
and You're thinking all my thoughts
are so simple
but so beautiful
and You recite my words right back to me
before i even speak
You let me know
i am understood

the noise has broken my defense
let me embrace salvation....
