Pencil marks on a wall, I wasn't always this tall You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed You watched my team win You watched my team lose Watched when my bicycle went down again And when I was weak, unable to speak Still I could call You by name And I said, Elbow Healer, Superhero Come if You can You said, I Am
Only sixteen, life is so mean What kind of curfew is at 10pm? You saw my mistakes And watched my heart break Heard when I swore I'd never love again And when I was weak, unable to speak Still I could call You by name And I said Heartache Healer, Secret Keeper Be my best friend And you said, I Am
You saw me wear white by pale candlelight I said forever to what lies ahead Two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream Too much it might seem when it is 2am And when I am weak, unable to speak Still I will call You by name Shepherd, Savior, Pasture Maker Hold onto my hand You say, I Am
The winds of change and circumstance blow in and all around us So we find a foothold that's familiar And bless the moments that we feel You nearer
When life had begun, I was woven and spun You let the angels dance around the throne And who can say when, but they'll dance again When I am free and finally headed home I will be weak, unable to speak Still I will call You by name Creator, Maker, Life Sustainer Comforter, Healer, my Redeemer Lord and King, Beginning and the End
