intro

F#m4,7
 
 
 

verse 1

take me as I am
I lay down all I thought I should be
and I give up my walls of pride,
(A2) - E
hoping love will find me
take me as I am
never wanted to need Your love,
so alone and afraid to fall,
(A2) - E
praying love will find me

chorus

E - A2 G#m6 - F#m4,7
And can it be- that You love me this way?
E - A2
You never ask me to be more than I could be
G#m6 - F#m4,7 C#m F#m4,7 - A2
No more trying to be someone, and can it be
C#m F#m4,7 - A2
yeah, and can it be

verse 2

Take me as I am
Never good enough to be loved,
so I lived with my pain inside,
(A2) - E
hoping love will find me
Take me as I am
So tired of trying to make it alone,
so I'm taking this step of faith,
(A2) E
trusting You will find me

bridge

F#m4,7
In the mirror all I saw
was that I never measured up
I couldn't like myself, so
how could I understand Your love?
F#m4,7
I thought love was something bought-
by being someone I was not
how could I know all You'd
ask is that I let You love me?

repeat chorus

(end on A2, precussion, and fade)
