I SEE THE TRUTH IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT

I SEE THE TRUTH IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT 

Verse 1:

I used to feel the weight of fear

Anxiety would always draw near

I thought each step was under review

Punishment for each mistake would ensue

Chorus:

But now I see the truth revealed

God's love and compassion unconcealed

No longer bound by guilt and shame

I know I can connect with God's loving flame

Verse 2:

Once burdened by the weight of sin

But now I see the freedom within

The punishing God was just a myth

A fear-based belief that didn't fit

Chorus:

But now I see the truth revealed

God's love and compassion unconcealed

No longer bound by guilt and shame

I know I can connect with God's loving flame

Bridge:

Empowered by this newfound grace

I live my life with a smile on my face

No longer afraid to take a chance

Knowing God's love will guide my stance

Chorus:

But now I see the truth in a different light

Once I thought that God would judge me

But now I see it was just fear's might

I believed that every sin

Would be punished with great might

But now I see that God is love

And it's all going to be alright

Chorus:

But now I see the truth in a different light

Once I thought that God would judge me

But now I see it was just fear's might

I used to be afraid to make mistakes

And take risks that I desired

But now I know that God is with me

And everything will work out fine

Chorus:

But now I see the truth in a different light

I used to think that God would judge me

But now I see it was just fear's might

God is loving, kind, and true

And we are all connected to Him

Let go of guilt and feel empowered

With faith and trust, we'll always win

Chorus:

But now I see that fear-based belief

No longer holds me down

I used to think that God punished us

For every single sound

But now I know, with clarity

That love is always near

And God, the loving, compassionate

Is always with us here

And though mistakes will sometimes come

We learn and grow from each

No longer afraid to take a chance

With God's love, we're never out of reach

So let us all stand tall and strong

With faith and trust within

For with God's love, we'll always win

And true empowerment, we'll begin

Chorus:

With faith and trust, we'll always win

No longer bound by fear and sin

For God's love is all we need

To fulfill our dreams and destiny
