Corrinne May - You Believed

I shouldn’t be here 
Me with my brokenness
Me with the holes in my wounded heart
It’s perfectly clear
This world would never choose me
cause I’m no work of art 
I was headed down the slope
Had used up my hope 
And that was to be the end of me

But You believed 
When nobody else could see 
You believed 
When the whole world gave up 
I’m here because You believed

Unanswered prayers 
Doesn’t mean you’re forgotten 
it just means that there’s a better plan 
Blurred in the dirt 
Dreams can go rotten cause 
Even heroes lose their strength 
I’m here to testify 
To your sacrifice 
Everyone needs a second chance

Cause You believed 
When nobody else could see 
You believed 
When the whole world gave up 
I’m here because You believed

You can see the whole picture 
Not just the drafts or the lame mistakes 
Every tree that flowers 
Needs to grow from the dirt of 
All that’s come before

Cause You believed 
When nobody else could see 
You believed 
When the whole world gave up 
I’m here because You believed
