Lyrics Authentic - Jerel

Let's be honest for a minute
Tell me this right here
How do you approach God
Knowing you're not at you're best
But knowing that he still sees the beauty in you
In your ugly moments

It's amazing how you love me though I'm far from my best
I'm just a filthy rag but you take me as I am
Pressing towards the mark
Never looking back
Fell seven times
But I got back up again
You know I'm imperfect but you still love me
Plus you stick by my side through all my struggles
You know I fall short so much Lord
But what never falls short is your love Lord

Don't want to be a contradiction
Don't wanna pray for a sign just to miss it
I want get caught up in my feelings
Lord I come to you in a way that's authentic
I don't want to get so caught up with the blessings
That I forget to acknowledge the blesser
I had my first encounter with you it was epic
Even this verse full of words won't do it justice
Lord you're close to the broken hearted yes you are
Putting me back together when I fall apart
You know my strengths you know my weakness
Before I said a prayer you knew what I needed
Removing the thought saying why bother
You're the one I constantly pour out my heart for
Coming to the healer knowing that I'm scared up
When I disappoint Lord just know I'm sorry

It's amazing how you love me though I'm far from my best
I'm just a filthy rag but you take me as I am
Pressing towards the mark
Never looking back
Fell seven times
But I got back up again
You know I'm imperfect but you still love me
Plus you stick by my side through all my struggles
You know I fall short so much Lord
But what never falls short is your love Lord

I'm not coming with my heart up on my sleeves
I'm just coming in the purest form it's me
I use to want to rewrite mistakes
Now I'm just tryna write a different way
We rely on the love God has for us
I know that God is love
You love me in spite of my wrongs
You know never left my side
Though I felt alone
You're turning my pain into a praise
I know that you always make away
Who am I to deserve this
You never deserted me, no, no, no
Lord forgive me when I go a different way
And come back to you after the mistake
Lord I'm sorry
For not listening when you talk to me

It's amazing how you love me though I'm far from my best
I'm just a filthy rag but you take me as I am
Pressing towards the mark
Never looking back
Fell seven times
But I got back up again
You know I'm imperfect but you still love me
Plus you stick by my side through all my struggles
You know I fall short so much Lord
But what never falls short is your love Lord
