[verse 1]

take me as I am

???? (A2)??? -???? E

hoping love will find me

E

take me as I am

never wanted to need Your love,

so alone and afraid to fall,

???? (A2)???? -???? E

praying love will find me

[chorus]

E??? -???? A2?????????? G#m6???? -??? F#m4,7

And can it be- that You love me this way?

???????????????????? E????? -???? A2

You never ask me to be more than I could be

trusting You will find me

[bridge]

F#m4,7

In the mirror all I saw

G#m6

was that I never measured up

A2

I couldn't like myself, so

C#m

how could I understand Your love?

F#m4,7

I thought love was something bought-

G#m6

by being someone I was not

A2

how could I know all You'd

B4

ask is that I let You love me?

[repeat chorus]

(end on A2, precussion, and fade)
