All the Things

all the things I couldn't say to you before, I can say to you now
all the things I couldn't feel before, you've shown me how to feel them now
all the things I took for granted, you have made me see
all the things I see are imperfect, yet you still chose to love me.

I am not a genius, nor do I pretend to be
In your creation, you made who you want me to be
I can say and scream for all the world to hear
Love, love, love, love, love, it is pretty clear

all the things that people say, could never turn me from you
all the things that people do, bring me closer to you
all the things I don't understand you guide me through
all the things in this world couldn't keep me from calling on you

Your name is a sweet song, that's special to sing
Your Word is a light, the light of a High King
On this earth you placed a Son, in which He did bring
hope and happiness, for He is my everything

no matter what happens in my life, no matter the words that people say, or the dumb things
that people do
one day nothing will matter because I will be there with you.  
His words are marked and His warning is set, 
one day all will remember and will never forget, 
your life on earth is being recorded every good deed and bad, 
we will all wish one day, that we'd been better than what we had.  
Our actions will be multiplied every single one, 
His wrath will come about, and stay until it's done.  
Whether willing to or not, one day all will see, 
He is Lord above all else, and bow to their knee.  
Confessions from their mouths, will soon be amplified, 
the King of Kings will come, and can no longer be denied.  F
or all the things I know are true, 
my home is in heaven, where is home for you?
