"Anyway"
There were pieces
Of me I did not
Want you to see
I was ashamed of the
Things I knew
You knew
There were things
That I wished I could
Hide from your view
But you saw
Through
And you loved me
Anyway
There were times
When I felt like I just
Could not stay
There were times
When I wanted to run
Far away
Times when I did not know
What to say
Yet you held
Me
And loved me
Anyway
Lord
You loved me
Right from the start
Put me
Back together
Each time I fell
Apart
You gave me
A brand new
Heart
Now I am
Your work
Of art
Because
You love me
Anyway
So
Each dawn
Before I arise
Before I even
Open my eyes
I thank you
For another sunrise
A brand new day
Because you
Love me anyway
