It Was You - Rosetta Howard

It Was You Lyrics

It was You
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
I was sick of all the pain
Tired of all the shame that I felt
But You showed me a way
To never have a doubt
And always to believe in myself
Now I see
It was You
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
Now I'm breathing for the first time
And I'm leaving all this behind
I've become what I am because of You
It was You

I'm so sorry 'bout the ways
But I can't take away my past
But You love me anyway
And now I wanna do
Everything for You that I can
Even though it won't erase
The foolish things that I've done
Things that blinded me
But now I see
It was You
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
Now I'm breathing for the first time
And I'm leaving all this behind
And I'll stand for what I know is real
So how can I make this up to You?
I'll fight and I'll push and I'll strive
Now that I living my life for You
I'll fight and I'll push and I'll strive
Can't You see?
It was You
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
Now I'm breathing for the first time
And I'm leaving all this behind
I've become what I am because of You
(It was You)
I can see the writing on the wall
As time begins to crawl away from me
And I've become what I am because of You
It was You
