Every Part of Me Craig Aven
What if they saw through the smile?
What if they looked underneath?
What if they scratched through the surface and caught a glimpse of me?
‘Cause I am just terribly broken,
I am just desperately weak,
but still I am dying to show them, me.
‘Cause you’re not truly loved until you’re fully known
And the light cannot shine bright on what is not exposed
I realise they may not like everything they see
But I can’t hide, ‘cause Jesus died for nothing less than every part of me.
How else would you know how He saved me?
How else could you see what He’s done?
How else would you know where I’ve been and just how far I’ve come?
So I’m not ashamed of my story, ‘cause it tells the power of God
It tells how I’m bought with a price
It tells how I’m washed by His blood
You’re not truly loved until you’re fully known
And the light cannot shine bright on what is not exposed
And I realise they may not like everything they see
But I can’t hide, ‘cause Jesus died for nothing less than every part of me.
So I’ll caste my pearls here before you
I’ll reveal every scar
if it will give you the courage to show me who you are
See you do not have to keep hiding
I understand you’re afraid
But take it from me you will make it
This is a risk you must take
You’re not truly loved until you’re fully known
The light cannot shine bright on what is not exposed
And I realise they may not like everything they see
But we can’t hide ‘cause Jesus died for nothing less
No I can’t hide ‘cause Jesus died for nothing less than every part of me.
