LISTEN TO “’TIL I GOT TO KNOW YOU” HERE
PURCHASE PIECES OF A REAL HEART – DELUXE VERSION – HERE

Ever since that fateful day when Adam and Eve realized they were naked and hid from God in the Garden of Eden, we’ve had this innate sense that it’s better to hide our imperfections than to let them be seen.  Do we think we’re valued only when our best foot is forward?  Is it that we believe to reveal a fault or a weakness is to admit that we’re failures?   We act this way toward each other, and we act this way toward God. How many times does He have to tell us we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14)?

Our insecurities, if we let God have access to them, are so often our greatest strengths. When we get to know God as He longs for us to, we see just how perfect it is that He created us this way.

‘Til I Got To Know You – Lyrics:

I tried perfecting myself
Would You love me more without my mistakes
I tried not to ask for Your help
Cuz I didn’t want to scare You away

Yeah I was always worried
I was gonna let You down
Oh, it felt like I was standing
In between the lost and found

Til I got to know You
You, I was at a place when You found a way
To break through
Its true
I was just a skeptic
Til I got to know You, You

And its hard accepting Your grace
In a world where nothings free
For so long I was afraid
That You’d only see the worst in me

Yeah, I was always worried
You were gonna figure out
That I wasn’t what You wanted
Wasn’t worth being around

Till I got to know You
You, I was at a place when You found a way
To break through
Its true
I was just a skeptic
Till I got to know You, You

And you have always been on my side
I finally see it
It took so long to believe in it
Cuz I was always worried
I was gonna let you down
Till I got to know You, You
Till I got to know You, You, You

Till I got know You, You
I was at a place when you found a way
To break through
Its true
I was just a skeptic
Till I got to know You
