Verse 1

I build up my defenses
Your goodness wears them down
I practice my excuses
But You know Your way around

Verse 2

I’ve tried to run from mercy
To find a hidden place
But You’re on me like a shadow
So I can’t get away

Chorus

It always scares me that You know me
Could You love me when I don’t like me
But if You formed me and You were happy
Oh then maybe I could finally stop my hiding

Verse 3

I cried out in desperation
For You to show Your face
With a whisper You assured me
You never look away

Verse 4

So my fear of disconnection
Is overcome by grace
What You have brought together
My shame can’t separate

Chorus

It always scares me that You know me
Could You love me when I don’t like me
But if You formed me and You were happy
Oh then maybe I could finally stop my hiding

Bridge 1

You see me
You really see me
And You love me
What a mystery

Bridge 2

You know me
You know the real me
And You want me
What a mercy

Bridge 1

You see me
You really see me
And You love me
What a mystery

Bridge 2

You know me
You know the real me
And You want me
What a mercy

Chorus

It always scares me that You know me
Could You love me when I don’t like me
But if You formed me and You were happy
Oh then maybe I could finally stop my hiding

Refrain

Oh maybe there is no reason to be hiding

Outro

Done with the hiding

Outro

Done with the running
Done with the cleaning myself up
Before I see You
Before I talk to You

Outro

You know me
You love me completely
There is nothing to hide
There is nothing to hide
