Lyrics
HE SEES RIGHT THROUGH ME
By Martin Shrout
February 6, 2006
VERSE #1
I?m wearing my mask
To hide all my flaws
I worked so hard
At keeping this façade
I?m full of pretence
Bluster and words
I construct each sentence
So my true image blurs
CHORUS
He sees right through me
He knows my heart
I can never fool him
Though I play my part
He sees right through me
And he loves me just the same
He sees right through me
And forgives all my shame
VERSE #2
He saw my friend Nathanial
Sitting under a tree
There was no way he could see him
But He knew him better than me
Jesus had this ability
To know you inside and out
You didn?t have to say a word
He had you all figured out
CHORUS
He sees right through me
He knows my heart
I can never fool him
Though I play my part
He sees right through me
And he loves me just the same
He sees right through me
And forgives all my shame
TAG
He sees right through me
And forgives my shame
He sees right through me
And forgives my shame
