The God I Know Now
by Adam Crabb

Album: Surrender

I used to think that God was far away
Looking down to see
The messes that I made
Fear would always drive me to my knees
To face an angry God
I thought I couldn't please

Untouched, unmoved
That was the God I knew

But the God I know now
Takes me as I am
I don't have to earn
The love He has given
Some way, somehow
He delights in me
I tell Him my heart
And He listens
Everything has changed
Since I found
The God I know how

Today because of mercy I am free
Able to forgive
'Cause He's forgiven me
And I have hope I never knew before
The shame of my regrets
Cannot haunt me anymore

I live, I sing
So the world will see

The God I know now
Takes me as I am
I don't have to earn
The love He has given
Some way, somehow
He delights in me
I tell Him my heart
And He listens
Everything has changed
Since I found
The God I know how

It's like I'm a child again
Free to dance, free to laugh
I lay my head
To sleep at night in peace
'Cause I wake up

To the God I know now
Takes me as I am
I don't have to earn
The love He has given
Some way, somehow
He delights in me
I tell Him my heart
And He listens
Everything has changed
Since I found
Yes, everything has changed
Since I found
The God I know how
The God I know how
