"Proud" lyrics

Caleb & John, Steven Curtis Chapman Lyrics

"Proud"

Here I am again back in these shadows I know all too well
Fightin' back all those dark whispered lies that echo from hell
They say you're never gonna be anything more than these
Stupid mistakes that you make

Then the voice of love says
Child lift up your head
And you smile and call me by name

You say you're... Proud of me
'Cause I'm a trophy of your perfect love
You're not lookin' down at me
You tell me your mercy is more than enough
You took all my shame and you gave me your name
When you nailed my sin to your tree
That's why you're proud of me

Could it really be true that you're singing a song over me
While you're telling the angels about the way you set me free
Is that smile that I chase already on your face
The moment I say I believe

You said you're... Proud of me
'Cause I'm a trophy of your perfect love
You're not lookin' down at me
You tell me your mercy is more than enough
And you're telling the story of your grace and glory
I'm yours... and that's all you need to make you
Proud of me

I was trying so hard then you showed me your scars
And you told me it's already done
And you meant what you said, it's out of my hands
I know that no matter what

You will be... Proud of me
'Cause I'm a trophy of your perfect love
You're not lookin' down at me
You tell me your mercy is more than enough
And you're telling the story of your grace and glory
I'm yours... and that's all you need to make you
Proud of me

Oh, thank you Jesus
