The Truth About Me
I’m no helpless bystander
I admit it sadly
I am in full participation
That’s the truth about me
Mercy, not justice
Mercy I need it now
Help me come clean and say
My sin drives me away [from You]
I tried not to say the ‘s’ word
Avoiding it at all cost
S-i-n is so defining
But here’s the new line I have crossed
Chorus
[away] into darkness
far from ever knowing You [x2]
what a tragedy that would be for me
I’m no hopeless bystander
I am learning what to do
Take my ugly sins from hiding
And lay them all out before You
Chorus

I hope you don’t think I’m being flippant about the very serious matter of sin.
I
do get to the truth in this lyric. Sin inspires walls between us and God as far
back as Adam and Eve. They ‘hid’ from God.
Yeah, right.
All I’m saying is don’t hide.
Come clean.
His righteous sacrifice has paid the bill.
