I was afraid to be weak
Afraid to be me
I was afraid
Because I didn't want them to see
What's broken in me
But I guess I was wrong
I should've known all along
When I'm weak You are strong in me
You make up what I lack
You shine through the cracks
Where I was shattered
Because You pour out Your grace
Through my broken places
So I guess I was wrong
I should've known all along
When I'm weak You are strong in me
So I won't be afraid to cry
To confess or question why
I won't hide the pain I feel
Now I know these wounds are how you heal
No I won't be afraid to cry
I don't want to live a lie
They will see Your love is real
When I let You use my wounds to heal
You can use these wounds to heal
'Cause if they're afraid I stand too tall
They'll burn down the bridges and build a wall
But if they know I stumble the walls may crumble down
I was wrong
I don't have to be strong
I didn't want to believe
But now I finally see
My deepest point of need
Is the better part of me
Oh yeah when I'm weak You are strong in me
I was afraid to be weak
Afraid to be me
