So Faithful

I've learned the truth so many times
So often I have seen so clearly
Who you are and how you love
And how you are so faithful
I've seen myself in your eyes
And I don't know what's left to love
I have been so unfaithful
Now I'm broken and crawling in the dust

This heart's been used before
And my mind won't let you in
My soul has shut you out
But still you love
I've done everything but follow
My rebellion slaps you in the face
I push the thorns in deeper
Still you love me

So often I stumble and fall
In blind pursuit of the truth
If I opened my eyes I could see you
Just standing there, loving me
The truth slips from my fingers
I've held it, but I'm always letting go
In your faithfulness you guide me
Until I can see again

This heart's been used before
And my mind won't let you in
My soul has shut you out
But still you love
I've done everything but follow
My rebellion slaps you in the face
I push the thorns in deeper
Still you love me

You don't let go when I let go
When I bite the dust in despair
I can never measure up to who you are
But still you love
You are faithful when I am unfaithful
When I turn my back on your way
I want to follow your heart again
Because I know you still love me
