I have been looking, trying to figure this out

This mirror?s got me trapped in fear and self doubt

I?ve held to the ghosts of the things I hate most about myself

If my reflection is a child of the King

It?s a perspective that I need to believe

The truth is You love me more than I could ever love myself


If I could only see how You see me now

I could lose these chains and lay my shame down

You see royalty, the best in me, You?re the kind of love I need

So help me see how You see me, how You see me now

How You see me, how You see me now

How You see me, how You see me now


It?s time for love to take the scales from my eyes

I gotta let truth be the one to decide 

Who I am ?cause You are the One who?s defining me

You define me 

 

You?re the love that comes to seek me out

I?m the one in the ninety-nine You found 

You?re the love that comes to seek me out

I?m the one in the ninety-nine You found 

And You see me now
