Even When I'm At My Darkest

Before I took a breath, you knew me
You called me by my name
And even when I'm at my darkest
You know me all the same

And every hair on my head you've numbered
And every thought within
And even when I cannot see you
I feel you closer than my skin

And in my darkest dreams, they find me
My failures haunt me in the night
A broken image of creation
Twisting, turning, hiding from the light

And then, I heard a voice so clear
Like deep, calling, deep, and I could hear
I felt your spirit drawing near
Breathing life in me, destroying every fear

My spirit woke with a hopeful plea
Each fighting breath resonating in me
You broke the chains to set me free
You gave me a song to lift my eyes and see

Lift up your head (you won't let me go)
Lift your head, cause help has come
Lift up your heart (you won't let me go)
Lift your heart, his will be done.
Lift up your hands (you won't let me go)
Lift your hands and praise the one
Lift up your song (you won't let me go)
Lift your song, o ransomed son!

Before I took a breath, you knew me
You called me by my name
And even when I'm at my darkest
You know me all the same
