When I was a child

I thought to pray

but I didn't believe

all the words You'd say



I was blinded by the lies

and I couldn't pluck out my adulterous eyes



I saw You beaten,

broken and bruised

and I knew the pain

of being abused

You conquered death

to restore my life

And I'm now Your Bride

soon to be Your wife



So much love I can't contemplate

You softened my heart - took away my hate



(Chorus)

Your glory has broken through

my selfish pride

my soul has been renewed

by Your wounded side

And I cannot repay all

the things You've done

Yet the only thing You say

is "Follow my Son."



(Bridge)

I see all these people

try to break my faith...

You cannot take Him

You cannot take Him



One day You'll return

to set up Your throne

and the world will see

that they're all alone



They don't understand

They don't understand



(Repeat Chorus)



When I was a child

I thought to pray

but I didn't believe

all the words You'd say

I was blinded by the lies

and I couldn't pluck out my adulterous eyes



I saw You beaten,

broken and bruised

and I knew the pain

of being abused

You conquered death

to restore my life

And I'm now Your Bride

soon to be Your wife



(Solo)



Calm my spirit, Jesus

I want to rest in You

I want to see You
