lyrics

If you made the mountains you planted the trees
And painted the colors on all the leaves
Forgive me for saying it’s hard to believe
After everything else you think about me

If you built the heavens the earth and the sea
Every dimension of what’s in between
It’s hard to imagine with all that you see
You still find a reason to care about me

Hard to get that far outside myself
If I ever have I can’t even tell
Hard accepting the help that I need
The way you love me it's hard to believe

I know what I’ve done I know where I've been
My soul was dirty and you washed it clean
When I don’t deserve it you still set me free
Swear that I’m grateful but it’s hard to believe

Hard to keep getting down on my knees
And hard to know why you keep saving me
Hard accepting the help I still need
The way you love me it's hard to believe
