[Verse 1] You see the truth beneath the polished face The quiet heart that seeks a steadier way No borrowed words, no mask we have to wear Just honest footsteps bringing us near [Pre-Chorus] Teach my tongue to leave no wound behind Give me courage to be true and kind [Chorus] Let me be sincere before Your eyes A faithful friend, with nothing to disguise Keep my words from turning love to pain Make my heart a shelter, not a chain When I walk upright, I’m never alone Your friendship makes a dwelling of my home [Verse 2] When Jesus met a man without deceit He saw the goodness underneath the need An imperfect soul, but honest through and through And spoke a word that made his courage new [Pre-Chorus] Teach my tongue to leave no wound behind Give me courage to be true and kind [Chorus] Let me be sincere before Your eyes A faithful friend, with nothing to disguise Keep my words from turning love to pain Make my heart a shelter, not a chain When I walk upright, I’m never alone Your friendship makes a dwelling of my home [Bridge] If I stumble, help me make things right If I speak, let mercy guide the light No slander carried from one door to two Let every promise show my love for You [Children’s Choir] True in heart, kind in word Walking close with You, our Lord True in heart, kind in word Let our lives reflect Your word [Final Chorus] Let me be sincere before Your eyes A faithful friend, with nothing to disguise Keep my words from turning love to pain Make my heart a shelter, not a chain When I walk upright, I’m never alone Your friendship makes a dwelling of my home [Outro] True in heart, kind in word Walking close with You, our Lord
