Nichole Nordeman - I Am lyrics

Pencil marks on a wall, I wasn't always this tall

You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed

You watched my team win

You watched my team lose

Watched when my bicycle went down again

And when I was weak, unable to speak

Still I could call you by name

And I said, elbow healer, superhero

Come if you can

You said, I am

Only sixteen, life is so mean

What kind of curfew is at 10pm?

You saw my mistakes

And watched my heart break

Heard when I swore I'd never love again

And when I was weak, unable to speak

Still I could call you by name

And I said Heartache Healer, secret keeper

Be my best friend

And you said, I am

You saw me wear white by pale candlelight

I said forever to what lies ahead

Two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream

Too much it might seem when it is 2am

And when I am weak, unable to speak

Still I will call You by name

Shepherd, savior, pasture maker

Hold onto my hand

You say, I am

The winds of change and circumstance blow in and all around us

So we find a foothold that's familiar

And bless the moments that we feel you nearer

When life had begun, I was woven and spun

You let the angels dance around the throne

And who can say when, but they'll dance again

When I am free and finally headed home

I will be weak, unable to speak

Still I will call you by name

Creator, maker, life sustainer

Comforter, healer, my redeemer

Lord and King, beginning and the end

I am

Yes, I am
