Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Years and years of pain
My mistakes stacked as high as I could see
Distracted by my shame
All the hurt I locked away inside of me
But there wasn't a moment
You didn't see me through a different lens
No there wasn't a moment
You stopped reminding me of who I am
'Cause you know where I am
And you know where I've been
Not a piece of my life's ever slipped through Your hands
You know all my thoughts
Before I say a word
Not a single prayer's ever left unheard
Oh, you know me
Yeah, you know me
You know me
Yeah, you know me by name
The one who made the stars
Made the sun, the moon, and still makes time for me
You say I'm on Your heart
Not one wrong I've done could make you ever leave
No there isn't a moment
Your love will ever start to see an end
There will never be a moment
I'll stop calling you my closest friend
What a wonder that the hands that made the universe
Could catch my every tear and hold me when I hurt
I'm in awe of Your affections and Your love for me
To call me righteousness to call me redeemed
You don't ever call me sinner
You call me as a saint
You don't call me unworthy
'Cause you know me by name
You know me by name
