Somehow

Category: Christian

I try to shield
every blemish, every stain
I rush to cover
All my hurt and all my pain

I spend my days
Living in worry and fear
That I'll be caught
And I can't make it disappear

You tell me I'm new
You tell me I'm clean
But I'm not even worthy
To call You my King


I turn away from You so easily
I sin against You joyfully
I know what You've done
And yet I lose faith
I have the audacity to
Accuse You to Your face
And somehow, You love me
Somehow You're still by my side
Somehow You want me through my darkness
And I can't see a reason why
But You love me somehow
Oh, You love me somehow


I'm not worthy
But You never asked me to be
I'm a nobody
But You want me anyway

I reject You
And You are still with me
There is none
Like the grace of the Almighty

You tell me I'm new
You tell me I'm clean
though I'm not worthy
I'll call You my King


But I turn away from You so easily
I sin against You joyfully
I know what You've done
And yet I lose faith
I have the audacity to
Accuse You to Your face
And somehow, You love me
Somehow You're still by my side
Somehow You want me through my darkness
And I can't see a reason why
But You love me somehow
Oh, You love me somehow

I replace You
But You love me somehow
I reject You
But You love me somehow

I accuse You
But You love me somehow
I run from You
But You love me somehow

I read Your Word and I pray every day
Yet I choose to turn and walk the other way
I know the consequences, all of the cons
Yet I ignore them and gladly do wrong
You see that I am a traitor
And I am a rebel
Yet You offer me a love
That's unconditional

Don't you know what I am?
I think that You do
So You can't just say,
"You know not what You do"
If I take Your hand and take another shot
I know I'll screw it up
So I think, "I'd better not"
Yet You stand right before me
With arms open wide
Yeah, you stand right before me
With tears in Your eyes
Tears of a love that no one can fathom
And arms full of grace no man can imagine
What could I have done
To deserve this from You
How could there be a love like this
Is it true?

But I turn away from You so easily
I sin against You joyfully
I know what You've done
And yet I lose faith
I have the audacity to
Accuse You to Your face
And somehow, You love me
Somehow You're still by my side
Somehow You want me through my darkness
And I can't see a reason why
But You love me somehow
Oh, You love me somehow

Somehow

Yes, You love this mess somehow.
