It Is I

V5.5

[Chorus]
It is I, Lord, it is I,
I can no longer hide behind the lie.
Not “if only,” not “they made me,”
But the heart that needs Your mercy.
Change my heart, change my ways,
Teach me how to live by grace.

[Verse 2]
I thought a different road would save me,
A different love would finally heal me.
I chased applause, I chased success,
Thinking more would make me feel like less.
I built my worth on what people said,
I measured my life by the things I had.
But every door I thought would set me free
Led me back to me.

[Pre-Chorus]
Not my status, not my name,
Not the world that I can blame.

[Bridge]
Rescue me from myself,
From the pride I cannot see.
Rescue me from every excuse
That keeps me from becoming free.

[Worship Rise]
Search me, Lord.
Know my heart.
Show me where I need to start.
Take the broken parts of me,
Make me who You want me to be.
[Final Chorus]
It is I, Lord, it is I,
Now Your grace has opened up my eyes.
No more “if only,” no more running,
No more hiding from becoming.
Change my heart, change my ways,
Teach me how to walk by grace.
It is I, Lord, it is I,
But Your mercy meets me where I hide.
Day by day, You make me new,
Teach me how to follow You.
[Outro]
When I look into the mirror,
Let me see what You can change.
When I face another morning,
Let me walk a different way.
No more “if only.”
No more blame.
By Your grace,
I will change.
It is I—
and You are still my hope.

[Verse 1] I blamed the road; I blamed the rain. I blamed the people who caused my pain. I blamed the years, the doors that closed, The hands that failed me, the life I chose. I kept saying, “If only things would change, If only someone else would take the blame.” But in the mirror, I finally saw The hardest truth of all. [Pre-Chorus] But every door I thought would set me free Led me back to me. [Chorus] It is I, Lord, it is I, I can no longer hide behind the lie. Not “if only,” not “they made me,” But the heart that needs Your mercy. Change my heart, change my ways, Teach me how to live by grace. [Verse 2] I thought a different road would save me, A different love would finally heal me. I chased applause, I chased success, Thinking more would make me feel like less. I built my worth on what people said, I measured my life by the things I had. But every door I thought would set me free Led me back to me. [Pre-Chorus] Not my status, not my name, Not the world that I can blame. [Chorus] It is I, Lord, it is I, I can no longer hide behind the lie. Not “if only,” not “they made me,” But the heart that needs Your mercy. Change my heart, change my ways, Teach me how to live by grace. [Bridge] Rescue me from myself, From the pride I cannot see. Rescue me from every excuse That keeps me from becoming free. [Worship Rise] Search me, Lord. Know my heart. Show me where I need to start. Take the broken parts of me, Make me who You want me to be.
