Always Been You
by Ryan Stevenson

Album: No Matter What

Verse 1
I used to think my weakness
Was something I should hide
I used to see my value
Through other people's eyes
I used to think my failures
Were how I'd be defined

Verse 2
It took some time to break through
The lies that I believed
But You showed me, my Savior
Was never really me
You've always gone before me
And You are with me now
You never let me down

Chorus
So put me in the fight
That I know I can't win
And lead me to the place
Where surrender never ends
Jesus, I don't want the glory
I've got nothing left to prove
'Cause the hero of my story
Has always been You

Verse 3
I used to think salvation
Was based upon my works
I thought that my acceptance
Was something I had to earn
But now I have assurance
No, I am not afraid
You already made a way

Chorus
So put me in the fight
That I know I can't win
And lead me to the place
Where surrender never ends
Jesus, I don't want the glory
I've got nothing left to prove
'Cause the hero of my story
Has always been You
Yeah, the hero of my story
Has always been You

Scripture Reading: Psalm 1: 1-3
1 Blessed is the man who doesn't walk in step with the wicked, stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers, 2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord; he meditates on his law day and night. 3 He's like a tree planted by streams of living water, which it bears fruit in every season, and the leaf never withers, and he prospers in everything he does.
