Album: Woven & Spun (Expanded Edition)
Pencil marks on a wall
I wasn't always this tall,
You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed,
You watched my team win,
You watched my team lose,
You watched when my bicycle went down again,
CHORUS:
And When I was weak unable to speak,
still I could call You by name,
and I said Elbow healer, Superhero,
come if You can, and You said I am
Only 16, life is so mean, what kind of curfew is at ten PM
You saw my mistakes, You watched my heart break
Heard when I swore I'd never love again
CHORUS:
When I was weak, unable to speak,
still I could call You by name,
and I said Heart-ache Healer, Secret-keeper,
be my Best Friend and You said I am
You saw me wear white, by pale candlelight,
I said forever to what lies ahead
two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream
too much it might seem when it's two AM
CHORUS:
when I am weak, unable to speak,
still I will call You by name.
Oh Shepherd, Savior, Pasture-maker,
hold on to my hand, and You say I am.
The winds of change,
And circumstance blow in and all around
us so we find a foothold that's familiar,
And bless the moments that we feel You nearer
Life had begun, I was woven and spun,
You let the angels dance around the throne, who can say when,
But they'll dance again, when I am free and finally headed home
CHORUS:
I will be weak, unable to speak,
still I will call You by name
Creator, Maker, Life-sustainer,
Comforter, Healer, My Redeemer,
Lord and King, Beginning and
the End, I am, yes, I am.
