  • Listen to "Who I Though You Were" ffm.to/wityw
    Lyrics:
    Yah they told me that You loved me, then they told me to toe the line
    They said I should be scared of doing things I know you don’t like
    Saying sorry every day
    cuz I was so afraid
    That’d you leave me so I left you chasing dreams I never found
    But through these tears here on my knees I’m begging you to come around
    Then the God I learned to fear
    You showed up and made it clear that
    CHORUS:
    You were there in the darkness
    You were there in my pain
    You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
    It’s so nice to finally meet you
    Why was I so afraid?
    I have so much left to learn
    But thank God you’re not who I thought you were
    VERSE 2:
    I always thought you’d be so angry, instead you’re patient and you’re kind
    You are for me, not against me, for way too long I believed the lie
    That there was only so much grace
    But now I can finally say that
    CHORUS:
    You were there in the darkness
    You were there in my pain
    You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
    It’s so nice to finally to meet you
    Why was I so afraid?
    I have so much left to learn
    But thank God you’re not …
    BRIDGE:
    Way too holy to want the broken
    Way too proud to love the meek
    Cuz now I know that what I fear
    Is not having you with me cuz
    CHORUS:
    You were there in the darkness
    You were there in my pain
    You saw me in the valleys and still loved me anyways
    It’s so nice to finally to meet you
    Why was I so afraid?
    I have so much left to learn
    But thank God you’re not who I thought you were

    This song "randomly" came up in my suggestions. I know now that it was not random for sure! I grew up in a faith that was very much works based and what is described at the beginning of the song is what I believed. It was about 9 yrs ago that my eyes were opened and I see God for the God He is! Thank you for this wonderful song!

    The God we serve is much more awesome than what even the brightest, wisest, and most distinguished minds can comprehend.

    Thank you for this song! Growing up in fundamentalism this hits especially close to home! I was taught so much fear but Praise God, He's not Who they told me He was!

    This song is a gift for me. I've always thought God was standing over me with a flyswat ready to swat me at the slightest infraction. I'm just now beginning to realize he is not like that. He is loving and kind and wants what is best for me,

      ​​@@JamieMuamar-te8cpI can't answer your question, but I know God is with you even when you don't feel it. Thought I had come out of dark valley only to slip backwards on the climb out. I don't understand the why, but at 70 I know He is beside me in the midst of all this. I pray that today you will be given a little small something that makes you know you are truly seen and loved. God bless you. I did also see your earlier post. Praying for you 🙏

    Beautiful song, Jesus loves us more than we will ever know and understand until we are with him in the heavenly home. In the meantime we just need to trust him through the hurt and the pain because he will only give us his best and he'll walk with us through the hurt and pain. God's blessings to everyone listening to this.

    This is truly so so beautiful! Right now I feel like it already became one of my new favorite songs. This captures so much my relationship with God. All my teen years I was so scared of Him, it almost drove me insane, because it came in the form of ocd thoughts, and the fear from Him quite literally made me mentally ill. So much other things, many other traumas came later, and I became more and more messed up mentally, and I still in the place of a lot of struggles, but slowly in the midst of all this, I got to learn, who God really is. As for me, I still wait for the moment, when I can say, 'It's so nice to finally meet You', because even though in my mind now I clearly see how good He is, and I'm so grateful for His neverending patience with me, and that He's there for me in the darkness, and also, because I know now, that He will lead me out of this valley, but for so many things, right now I'm still unable to feel Him. For so long now, I desire nothing more than a personal relationship with Him, but it's a long journey, and I now know that one day, I'll be there. Now I just need to be patient and wait for His timing.

      There is the grace of Jesus Christ and believing His grace is the truth; there is wisdom and strength given by God; to know Him and knowing The Creator only takes faith the size of a mustard seed. May Jesus provide His wisdom to know Him and being for His glory. Amen.
