You Are More - Tenth Avenue North

I have been at the bottom of the pit before where I could not see above the rim.  Being torn down by the mistakes of my past, not thinking that I was in any shape to come limping back to God.  I felt as though I would be simply rejected for my wrong deeds and sent off more another round of torment.  But this song affirms the life and message of Jesus which is that he came and died for us so that the barrier that separates us from our heavenly father.  Now we can be remade and have a regenerated heart that does not resemeble and of our past failues.  All of our sins have been washed clean and we stand before the Judge in a white robe with no signs of our previous selves.  This is amazing therefore I posted this song!

There's a girl in the corner
With tear stains on her eyes
From the places she's wandered
And the shame she can't hide

She says, "How did I get here?
I'm not who I once was.
And I'm crippled by the fear
That I've fallen too far to love"

But don't you know who you are, 
What's been done for you?
Yeah don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices that you've made, 
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You've been remade. 

Well she tries to believe it
That she's been given new life
But she can't shake the feeling
That it's not true tonight

She knows all the answers
And she's rehearsed all the lines
And so she'll try to do better
But then she's too weak to try

But don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices that you've made, 

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You've been remade. 

You are more than the choices that you've made, 
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You've been remade. 

'Cause this is not about what you've done, 
But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been, 
But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel, 
But what He felt to forgive you, 
And what He felt to make you loved. 

You are more than the choices that you've made, 
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You've been remade. 

You are more than the choices that you've made, 
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 
You are more than the problems you create, 
You've been remade. 

You've been remade
You've been remade. 
You've been remade.
You've been remade.

All is Great in the Lord
