overflow worship - identity (the author & ipseity) lyrics
[verse 1]
in the beginning, god, you created life
morality yours to define, the wrong from the right
and you created love when you gave man the freedom to choose
you said it was good and good means perfect with you
but this is the part of the story we don’t like to tell
that with the freedom you gave, man chose to rebel
[verse 2]
because of their choice men lost you face to face
the first and the worst mistake could not be erased
but, god, your love was stronger than our sin
you promised to make, a way to make us whole again
and even though on the outside we’re wasting away
the hope and restoration grows stronger with every day
[chorus]
in my weakness you are strong
when i fall you pick me up
even when my heart chooses wrong
still you choose to show me love
though our wandering strays so far
and i forget who you made me to be
you remind me of who you are
god, you’re my identity
[verse 3]
in a world that tells us, “be who you wanna be”
we make ourselves our own gods of foolish mutiny
we exchanged your truth for a lie and attributed life to the dead
ignoring the artist we’re praising the painting instead
but all our pursuits are like building a house on the sand
and when the tide crashes upon us, our work will not stand
[chorus]
in my weakness you are strong
when i fall you pick me up
even when my heart chooses wrong
still you choose to show me love
though our wandering strays so far
and i forget who you made me to be
you remind me of who you are
god, you’re my identity
[bridge]
i feel so dirty and shameful, there’s no way that you would accept me the way i am
i’ve tried to be something, but i’m coming up empty
i guess i’m a slave to what culture demands
i feel so dirty and shameful, there’s no way that you would accept me the way i am
i’ve tried to be something, but i’m coming up empty
i guess i’m a slave to what culture demands
[pre+chorus]
but you say you love me
and nothing is strong enough to separate me from your great love
your grace is sufficient, your promise steady, you’ve changed me in ways i could never dream of
now i’ve been forgiven and i’ve been accepted
because of your love i’m a brand new man
i’m not bound my past, i’m not lost with hope
i’m not leaving the freedom of who you say i am
[chorus]
in my weakness you are strong
when i fall you pick me up
even when my heart chooses wrong
still you choose to show me love
though our wandering strays so far
and i forget who you made me to be
you remind me of who you are
god, you’re my identity
god, you’re my identity
god, you’re my identity
