Matthew West
The Truth
[Verse 1]
How many times can you hear the same lie
Before you start to believe it?
The enemy keeps whisperin' to me
I swear these days it's all that I'm hearin'

[Pre-Chorus]
I used to know who I was
Now I look in the mirror and I'm not so sure
Lord, I don't wanna listen to the lies anymore

[Chorus]
The truth is I am my Father's child
I make Him proud and I make Him smile
I was made in the image of a perfect King
He looks at me and wouldn't change a thing
The truth is I am truly loved
By a God who's good when I'm not good enough
I don't belong to the lies, I belong to You
And that's the truth

[Verse 2]
When I feel like there's so much noise
Livin' rent-free in my head
Heaven finds me in a still small voice
And it sounds like grace instead
[Pre-Chorus]
You remind me who I am
When I look in the mirror and I'm not so sure
Lord, I don't wanna listen to the lies anymore

[Chorus]
The truth is I am my Father's child
I make Him proud and I make Him smile
I was made in the image of a perfect King
He looks at me and wouldn't change a thing
The truth is I am truly loved
By a God who's good when I'm not good enough
I don't belong to the lies, I belong to You
And that's the truth

[Bridge]
I know who I am
'Cause I know who You are
And I hold Your truth inside of my heart
I know the lies are always gonna try and find me
But I've never been so sure

[Chorus]
The truth is I am my Father's child
I make Him proud and I make Him smile
I was made in the image of a perfect King
He looks at me and wouldn't change a thing
The truth is I am truly loved
By a God who's good when I'm not good enough (Not good enough)
I don't belong to the lies, I belong to You (I belong to You)
And that's the truth
[Outro]
Hmm
And that's the truth
