*********************************************************************

[verse 1]
A promise spoken 
Is a promise broken 
An inconsistent life is all I am I won't deny
My secret's showing 
There's no way to hold it 
'Cause everything that promises to hide
Will one day step into the light
Revealing all I am is someone else inside
I'm someone else inside

[verse 2]
And I stand in fear as you're coming near and 
The moment when I think the end
Will come You take me in
I gaze in wonder
When torn asunder
My heart begins to spread its wings and fly 
And it soars into your light
Revealing everyone is someone else inside

[chorus]
And when I try to lose perspective
And when I change my point of view
When I look at where I've come from
Next to where You've brought me to
Lord I can't believe my eyes 
No, I can't believe my eyes
I can't believe

[bridge]
And I'm standing here beside myself
I look but I can't tell
Why mercy fell to cover me 
I praise You Lord, I can't believe my eyes
