Just Showed Up For My Own Life - Sara Groves

Spending my time sleep walkin'

Movin' my mouth but not saying a thing

Hopin' the changes would take

By workin' their way from the outside in

I was in love with an idea

Preoccupied with how a life should appear

Spending my time at the surface

Repairing the holes in a shiny veneer

There are so many ways to hide

There are so many ways not to feel

There are so many ways to deny what is real

And I just showed up

For my own life

And I'm standin' here takin' it in

And it sure looks bright

I'm going to live my life inspired

Look for the holy in the common place

Open the windows and feel all that's honest and real

Until I'm truly amazed

And I'm goin' to feel all my emotions

I'm goin' to look you in the eyes

I'm goin' to listen and hear until it's finally clear

And it changes our lives

There're so many ways to hide

There're so many ways not to feel

There're so many ways to deny what is real

And I just showed up

For my own life

And I'm standin' here takin' it in

And it sure looks bright

Oh the glory of God is man fully alive

Oh the glory of God is man fully alive

And I just showed up

For my own life

And I'm standin' here takin' it in

And it sure looks bright

And I just showed up

For my own life

And I'm standin' here takin' it in

And it sure looks bright

And the glory of God is man fully alive

Oh the glory of God is man fully alive

I'm comin' alive

I'm comin' alive

I'm comin' alive

And I just showed up

Oh look what I've been missin'

Oh see what I've been missin'

Standin' here taking it in

And it sure looks bright

And I just showed up

And I just showed up

Oh look what I've been missin'
