Better Than I Ever Thought

Used to wonder what You thought of me
Were You watching so distraught with me?
Did I mean anything to You?
Did I matter? Did I move You?

In all my questioning and wandering
In all the doubts that I was harboring
Did You love me cause you have to?
Or cause You want me and my scars too?

Never guessed You were desperate for me to come home
Never thought You would wait with the porch light on
Never guessed that Your grace was as good as this

You're better than I ever thought
Came running from a long way off
Came running when my heart was lost
You're everything I never imagined
You're better than I ever thought

Don't have to wonder what you think of me
You made it clear enough for all to see
You don't care if I deserve it
You keep calling me beloved

Never guessed You were desperate for me to come home
Never thought You would wait with the porch light on
Never guessed that Your grace was as good as this

You're better than I ever thought
Came running from a long way off
Came running when my heart was lost
You're everything I never imagined
You're better than I ever thought

You put a ring and a robe on a rebel
Opened Your heart and Your home to me
Amazing grace how sweet the scandal
That You would love somebody like me

Never guessed You were desperate for me to come home
Never thought You would wait with the porch light on
Never guessed that Your grace was as good as this

You're better than I ever thought
Came running from a long way off
Came running when my heart was lost
You're everything I never imagined
You're better than I ever thought
You see me like no one else does
You see right through the dirt and dust
You're better than I ever imagined
You're better than I ever thought
