The Real Me

The Real Me - Natalie Grant


Foolish heart looks like we're here again
Same old game of plastic smile
Don't let anybody in
Hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
How much will they take before I'm empty
Do I let it show, does anybody know?
But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me
Painted on, life is behind a mask
Self-inflicted circus clown
I'm tired of the song and dance
Living a Charade, always on parade
What a mess I've made of my existence
But you love me even now
And still I see somehow
But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me
Wonderful, beautiful is what you see
When you look at me
You're turning the tattered fabric of my life into
A perfect tapestry
I just wanna be me
But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me
And you love me just as I am
Wonderful, Beautiful is what you see
When you look at me

SOooOOoo many people will disappoint you in your lifetime.  Many people will hurt you, and you will do the same to others.  Perhaps not intentionally, but regardless, it's inevitable that it'll happen.  We're human.  We sin.  We make mistakes.  However, the blood of the lamb saved us from all that sin.
Thank you Father....
Holy...holy....holy....
How can I help but cry these words?  No matter how broken I am, no matter how many times I fall and stumble into sin, You love me unconditionally.  No matter how alone and desolate I feel...I have you.  I can always run into your arms.  Thank you Jesus. 

xoxo,
Eunice
