Kirk Franklin - Look At Me Now lyrics

rate me

Persecuted, criticized, been denied and abandoned

Pushed away, given away, some days I couldn't imagine

Getting harder, getting colder, was hard for me to see

Tired of runnin', tired of hurtin', even got tired of me

Tired of cryin', tired of tryin' to forget my mistakes

Tired of bein' in this storm, how much more can I take

Many nights in my life, tell me why

I shed more tears, my eyes would allow

And after all that

Look at me now!

I'm stronger this time around!

Not because I was so good, but somehow

You looked past where I was

And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me

Look at me know!

So many didn't make it through

That's why this heart belongs to only You!

How can I complain 'bout the pain I went through

Cause it grew me

Look at me now!

Had no hope, had no future, even too hard to dream

No one told me, “boy, you can be whatever you want to be”

Then You saved me and You gave me reason to breathe again

Not perfect, ya'll, but I'm gon' run 'til I make it to the end

(It ain't easy when your life's filled with wounds that won't heal)

And you fight through the lies trying to find what's for real

Everyone wants the prize but they can't stand the pain

The strength I needed it came that night I cried out Your name

To my people in the struggle, all my soldiers and believers

To my survivors of Rita, Katrina and even FEMA

(All things are working together for our good)

Look at me now!

I'm stronger this time around!

Not because I was so good, but somehow

You looked past where I was

And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me

Look at me know!

So many didn't make it through

That's why this heart belongs to only You!

How can I complain 'bout the pain I went through

Cause it grew me

Look at me now!

Yes, I've seen some hard times

Some bad choices that I've made fell back on me

But now it's time to move on, move on

Can't let my past hold down my destiny

And even though I don't always know

Why you allow the night to last so long

But when I see the sunlight

It was only to make me strong

Look at me...

Look at me...

Look at me...

Look at me, look at me

I'm better now! I'm closer now!

I'm thankful now! I'm happy now!

Look at me! Look at me!

I'm stronger now! I'm patient now!

I'm grateful now! I'll praise you now!

Look at me! Look at me!
