Teaching me

I stood on the mountain top
In all my glory
Until the day you came
And took a hold of me

You gently took my hand
And started down
Never looking back
At my broken crown.

I thought you'd lost your mind
When we stepped into the dark
Thought I knew best
But I was missing the mark

Cause you're teaching me
How to trust in you
Showing me through this
What's right and true.

That all your ways
Are above the line
Your thoughts and plans
Are above all mine.

I trembled and shook
As everything fell
All my possessions
And things I knew well.

But still you walked on
Always pressed on
No matter how slow
This cause you will champion

I thought you misunderstood
When I gave you my all
I wanted to live
But you won't let me fall

Cause you're teaching me
There's always more
More to what life seems
Then to be rich or poor

Cause you're showing me
Your beauty and grace
Building my desire
To see your face

And I understand why
You took me aside
Taught me what's right
Humbled my pride

And now on your
Promise I stand
Believing in you
And the scars in your hand
