You are more



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? 
Yeah don't you know who you are?
 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. 
Well she tries to believe it 
That she's been given new life
 But she can't shake the feeling 
That it's not true tonight 
She knows all the answers
And she's rehearsed all the lines 
And so she'll try to do better
 But then she's too weak to try
 But don't you know who you are? 
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. 
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. 
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. 
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. 
You've been remade 
You've been remade. 
You've been remade. 
You've been remade.

Complete song


You wouldn’t praise if you didn’t know how to curse,
Only those who cry know how to smile
You wouldn’t love today if it wasn’t for your groaning
If it wasn’t for your crying you would not carry light in your eyes.
If you didn’t bind your own wound.

Your hand would not anoint the wounds of strangers.
You wouldn’t yearn for pieces of heaven
If you would not carry a shard of hell in you.
Because you can’t rise from the dust without falling face down in the bitterness of it.
And if you’re brought to live in today’s song
It is because you were dying in last night’s tear.
