Lyrics

My aching heart had hunted you, longing to be known,
But each time I was asked to leave, left to seek alone.
Out of the closet, out of the church, out of the prison of the search.
I swore I?d never beg again, or hide my face in shame,
This is how You made me, so I won?t take the blame,
And since I?ve learned to live with the doubt,
What?s this yearning in my heart tonight about?
Chorus 1:
Is this the real you, is this the real you?
I wanted Truth but only learned to lie.
Is this the real you, this time the real you
My wounded heart can?t dare to hope, I lost the vision years ago,
I searched so long how can I know if it?s true. Is it you?
Oh my Child, I?m waiting here, longing to be known,
I left all of the world behind to look for you alone,
Out of the heavens, sentenced to death, saying I love you with every breath
I watched out for you, smoothed the path, and tried to show you light,
But you would never let me hold you in the night.
So now once more, I offer you the chance,
Will you turn away or join the dance?
Chorus 2:
Is this the real you, is this the real you?
You looked for Truth but only learned to lie.
Is this the real you, this time the real you
You hid from me long years ago, my waiting heart has missed you so,
So if you?re ready let me know if it?s true?
God, you could not bless my lie, would not embrace my mask,
But in this place, lost in your love, I?ll never have to ask.
(Chorus 1)
Just as I am without one plea, and yes this is finally the real me.
So tell me one more time, God, is it You?
