When no one sees me
In intimacy
Where I cannot speak
More than the truth

Where there are no appearances
Where my heart is laid bare
There, I am sincere
There, my appearance of piety, fades away
There, it is your grace that counts
Your forgiveness that sustains
To stand firm

And I couldn't face it if it weren't because I am
Clothed in the grace and righteousness of the Lord
If they saw me as I am, they would realize that it is Jesus
What they have seen reflected in me was only His light

And it is by your grace, and your forgiveness
That we can be called instruments of your love
And it is by your grace, and your forgiveness
My righteousness far from your perfection

And I couldn't face it if it weren't because I am
Clothed in the grace and righteousness of the Lord
If they saw me as I am, they would realize that it is Jesus
What they have seen reflected in me was only His light

And it is by your grace, and your forgiveness
That we can be called instruments of your love
And it is by your grace, and your forgiveness
My righteousness far from your perfection
