I'm Not Gonna Lie

Heard the Lord calling me by the name
Here I am, I'm not running away
I was blind, but now I see beyond my aim
I'm still learning, and I don’t wanna go astray

You fill me with love when my soul was dark and hollow
You renew my faith when I run out of hope

I'm not gonna lie and pretend it no longer hurts
The pain brought me here, closer to you God
All of my love, my plans, my life, my trust
I surrender, my Lord, for my soul rejoices in you

Your promises are what I treasure the most
And I keep them deep inside of my heart
God hasn’t given me a spirit of fear
But one of power to endure until the end

We’re troubled on every side, but we’re not distressed
We are perplexed, but not in despair
We can be persecuted, but never forsaken
We can be cast down, but never destroyed
