Better

You know me better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

The person I hide,

The person I really am.
The sins I conceal,
And all of my shame.
My past, My future,
The life I'm living now.
You know every twist and turn,
And what's coming around the bend.
You know why things happen the way they do,
And the reason for every stumble and fall.
You know me better -
Better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

From my deepest darkest thoughts,

To the dreams of who I want to be.
My history, and all of my memories -
Though fading from my mind,
Are crystal clear in your eyes,
Because You know me better -
Better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

You know my innermost parts, my innermost thoughts.

You knit me together, stitch by stitch, in my mother's womb.
You know the hairs on my head, and every defining feature of me.
You know every thought that's ever crossed my mind,
Every heartache, headache, and hurt I've ever endured.
You know me better -
Better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

God, when I'm lost in all this mystery,

In all the chaos and confusion.
When I don't what to do or where to turn,
Will You remind me that you know me better?
You know me better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

When I want things to change,

When I'm tired of the way things are.
When I don't understand why I am where I am,
When I'm worried about the future I can't see,
Will You remind me that You are in control -
Because you know me better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.

I don't know what's best for me,

I don't know what I need,
But I know I need You.
I know that You are better,
And I put my trust in You,
Because you know me better -
Better than I know myself,
Better than anyone else ever could.
