You Are More

What an encouraging song.  It's not about us, but about Him!

You Are More by Tenth Avenue North

There's a girl in the corner
With tear stains on her eyes
From teh places she's wandered
And the shame she can't hide

She says, how did I get here?
I'm not who I once was.
And I'm crippled by the fear
That I've fallen too far to love.

But dont' you know who you are,
What's been done for you?
Yeah don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices you have made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

Well she tries to believe it
That she's been given a new life
But she can't shake the feeling
That it's not true tonight

She knows all the answers
And she's rehearsed all the lines
And so she'll try to do better
But then she's too weak to try

But don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices you have made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

You are more than the choices you have made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

Cause this is not about what you've done
But what's been done for you.
This is not abuot where you've been
But where your brokenness brings you to.

This is not about what you feel,
But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved.

You are more than the choices you have made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

You are more than the choices you have made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

You've been remade.
You've been remade.
You've been remade.
You've been remade.
