The Lie

For what the mirror keeps telling you.

The Lyrics

I saw you at the mirror, I heard the lie you believed
Counting all the ways you think you don't measure up to Me
But I was there before the voices, I knew you in the dark
I wove you in the secret place, I memorized your heart

So look again, look again, child of Mine
Let Me tell you who you are this time

You are chosen, you are covered, you are fearfully made
You're not the lie in the mirror, not the shame, not the chains
You are loved, you are Mine, you are more than enough
Let Me show you yourself through the eyes of My love
This is who you are

Every name they ever gave you that was never from Me
I'm taking back, I'm rewriting, I'm calling you free
You don't have to earn this, you can't fall out of My hand
I delight in you, beloved, just as you are, just as you stand

So look again, look again, lift your eyes
Let Me speak the truth over your life

You are chosen, you are covered, you are fearfully made
You're not the lie in the mirror, not the shame, not the chains
You are loved, you are Mine, you are more than enough
Let Me show you yourself through the eyes of My love
This is who you are

You are worthy, you are wanted
Held together by My grace
Stop fighting the reflection
Let Me show you My face
You are worthy, you are wanted
Believe the words I say
I have loved you from the very first day

You are chosen, you are covered, you are fearfully made
You're not the lie in the mirror, not the shame, not the chains
You are loved, you are Mine, you are more than enough
See yourself the way I do, through the eyes of My love
This is who you are

This is who you are
Loved just as you are
My beloved, just as you are
