Verse 1: I was told I was wrong before I spoke Taught to smile before I sang They measured my worth in silence And called it grace But You You spoke before the world did Before the names that weren’t mine Before the hands that tried to rewrite me Chorus 1: You called me daughter Not when I was healed But when I was bleeding on the floor You said I was flame Not for what I did But because You placed fire in me Before I was formed Verse 2: I faltered I broke I forgot how to believe But You never forgot me Not when they turned their backs Not when my womb emptied Not when the voice they stitched shut Began to scream Chorus 2: You stood in the quiet Where no one else waited And said She is Mine You watched me walk through rooms that swallowed me You saw me choke on spoons and shame And still You said She is Mine Bridge: When the doctors doubted When family vanished When even my own prayers turned to ash You stayed You saw the miscarriage The diagnosis The nights I held my breath And whispered I don’t know who I am anymore And You answered You are still the one I named You are still the voice I placed in the fire Still the body I breathed worth into Still the soul I called good Chorus 3 (Final): So I rise Not because I am strong But because You held the ashes And handed me back the match Outro: This is my worship Not in temples But in scars Not in hymns But in surviving You did not leave me in silence You taught me how to speak again And when I did I spoke flame Then You sent others Not crowds But kindling Souls on Fire They didn’t fix me They saw me They reminded me of who I am When I could barely lift my head Their words came like warmth Their presence like prayer And in their eyes I saw the echo of Yours Unflinching Gentle True You placed them in my path Not as saviours But as proof That I was never walking alone That Your voice lives Not just in scripture But in the people who carry it with tenderness Who call me sister When I feel like a shadow So now I carry this name This flame This story With them Because of You Because You never stopped speaking Even when I forgot how to listen
