Who I Thought You Were

Yeah, they told me that you loved me, then they told me to toe the line
They said I should be scared of doing things I know you don't like
Saying sorry every day
'Cause I was so afraid

That'd you leave me so I left you chasing dreams I never found
But through these tears here on my knees I'm begging you to come around
Then the God I learned to fear
You showed up and made it clear that

You were there in the darkness
You were there in my pain
You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
It's so nice to finally meet you
Why was I so afraid?
I have so much left to learn
But thank God you're not who I thought you were

I always thought you'd be so angry, instead you're patient and you're kind
You are for me, not against me, for way too long I believed the lie
That there was only so much grace
But now I can finally say that

You were there in the darkness
You were there in my pain
You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
It's so nice to finally to meet you
Why was I so afraid?
I have so much left to learn
But thank God you're not

Way too holy to want the broken
Way too proud to love the meek
'Cause now I know that what I fear
Is not having you with me 'cause

You were there in the darkness
You were there in my pain
You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
It's so nice to finally to meet you
Why was I so afraid?
I have so much left to learn
But thank God you're not who I thought you were
