Nichole Nordeman - Take Me As I Am Lyrics
Oh, for a heart that does not acheFor a backbone that won't breakFor some steady feet or sturdy groundA road that isn't gonna let me turn around and runFor a thousand tongues to singTo wear wisdom like Solomon's robeFor the patience and perspective of a man like JobJust to soar on wings of eaglesFor no other reason than the bird's eye viewFor a flight or twoAnd the list gets longerWho I wish I was, and was no longerI never could be good enoughTo measure upBut You want to take me as I comeYou're the only one that canTake me as I amOh, to feel hope in hopeless timesNever mind the silver lining 'cause the clouds are fineTo breathe prayers that move the heavensOr save hundreds from the flamesTo know my place, to know my nameBut the gap grows widerBetween who I am and all I aspire to beI never could be good enoughTo measure upBut You want to take me as I comeYou're the only one that canTake me as I amAt the end of myself, at the end of the dayI can find little else but the courage to say I need YouThat's all ... I need YouI never could be good enoughTo measure upBut You want to take me as I comeYou're the only one that canTake me as I am
