Definition of Me
Here come those words again
I run for cover, I'm dodging them.
But still they seem to find their way
around my best defense
Here come those little thoughts
of all I ought to be but I'm not
I try talking to myself
but I'm still not convinced
I'm good, I'm bad, I'm everything in between oh
I'm this, I'm that, but really God we both know
It is Your love that defines me
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live, You have given
and in You I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You
This ladder never ends
I climb up then we slide down again
Still they say you've not arrived
until you reach the top
But Your kingdom's upside down
it is the servant who wears the crown
First is last and last is first
and You're all that I'm not
'Cause I'm weak, You're strong, I'm empty 'til You fill me
I sing this song to keep myself remembering
It is Your love that defines me
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live, You have given
and in You I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You
I have been made by You
I have been saved by You
All that I am is all because of You
I'm weak, You're strong, I'm empty but You fill me
I'm singing this song to keep myself remembering
It is Your love that defines
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live You have given
and in You, I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You
I run for cover, I'm dodging them.
But still they seem to find their way
around my best defense
Here come those little thoughts
of all I ought to be but I'm not
I try talking to myself
but I'm still not convinced
I'm good, I'm bad, I'm everything in between oh
I'm this, I'm that, but really God we both know
It is Your love that defines me
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live, You have given
and in You I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You
This ladder never ends
I climb up then we slide down again
Still they say you've not arrived
until you reach the top
But Your kingdom's upside down
it is the servant who wears the crown
First is last and last is first
and You're all that I'm not
'Cause I'm weak, You're strong, I'm empty 'til You fill me
I sing this song to keep myself remembering
It is Your love that defines me
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live, You have given
and in You I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You

All that I am is all because of You

I'm singing this song to keep myself remembering
It is Your love that defines
and Your love that reminds me
it's not what I do
This life I live You have given
and in You, I am hidden
This is what I know is true
that the definition of me is You
