as i am

when i want to run away, ashamed of mistakes i've made, i try to hide my face from your sight, that's when you call my name, and wrap me within your grace, hidden in your embrace i lift my eyes, you love me as i am, not as i should be, with a love that conquers shame, jesus, you are saving me, when i went the way i knew, would lead me away from you, you followed me there to prove you'll never leave, no matter the damage done, or how far i try to run, when i lose my way, you come to carry me back home, you love me as i am, not as i should be, with a love that conquers shame, jesus, you are saving me, oh forgive me when, i believe my sin, is stronger than your love for me, you tell me i am new, that i belong to you, your love is making me believe, oh forgive me when, i believe my sin, is stronger than your love for me, you tell me i am new, that i belong to you, your love is making me believe, and it's changing me, you love me as i am, not as i should be, with a love that conquers shame, jesus, you are saving me, you are saving me, jesus, you are saving me
