Mistakes
Lyrics:
[English]
(Na na na)
(Na na na na)
I make 'em, I try to hide 'em
Sometimes it feels like I'm defined by them
All of the evidence stacked against me
All of the fingers that are pointed at me
I can't deny it
All of my mistakes
Woven through my story
All the mess I make
God, use it for Your glory
Every wrong turn, it's true
Led me right here to You
I may lose my way, nothing's greater than Your grace
Not even my mistakes
(Na na na)
(Na na na na)
Not even my mistakes
(Na na na)
(Na na na na)
I hunger to be holy
But I still wrestle with the old me
You know who I am, who I'm becoming
Through all the dirt and the stains, you love me
I can't deny it
All of my mistakes
Woven through my story
All the mess I make
God, use it for Your glory
Every wrong turn, it's true
Led me right here to You
I may lose my way, nothing's greater than Your grace
Not even my mistakes
(Na na na)
(Na na na na)
Not even my mistakes
(Na na na)
(Na na na na)
Every hard fall, back in yesterday
Every stumble that I've yet to make
The cross redeems, and washes them away
Whoa
And washes them away, oh
All of my mistakes
Woven through my story
(My story, oh)
All the mess I make
God, use it for Your glory
(All for You, Lord)
Every wrong turn, it's true
Led me right here to You
(You)
I may lose my way, nothing's greater than Your grace
(Oh)
All of my mistakes
(My mistakes)
Woven through my story
(My story, Lord)
All the mess I make
God, use it for Your glory
(Oh God, use it, Lord)
Every wrong turn, it's true
Led me right here to You
(You)
I may lose my way, nothing's greater than Your grace
(Mmm)
Not even my mistakes
(No)
Not even my mistakes
Not even my mistakes
(My mistakes)
Not even my mistakes
No, not even my mistakes
