The Real Me

Here is a song by Natalie Grant, one of my favorite christian artists, that really resonated with me last week. I had heard it before, but it seemed like God purposefully laid it on my heart and allowed me listen to it with a new perspective. Click on the link below to listen.

Foolish heart looks like we're here again
Same old plastic smile
Don't let anybody in
Hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
How much will it take before I'm empty
Do I let it show, does anybody know?

But You see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me, completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause You see, the real me

Painted on, life is behind a mask
Self-inflicted circus clown
I'm tired of the song and dance
Living a charade, always on parade
What a mess I've made of my existence
But You love me even now
And still I see somehow

Wonderful beautiful is what You see
When You look at me
You're turning the tattered fabric of my life into
A perfect tapestry
I just wanna be me

You see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me, completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause You see, the real me

And You love me just as I am
Wonderful beautiful is what You see
When You look at me
