A Pesar De Mí

I'm still not what you want
And I know you love me just the same
But the work goes where it should
You will complete it

And even though I'm not perfect
I am where He wants me to be

Because despite me, you will always be there
I am for you, you won't let go of me
And even though I'm not perfect
I am where He wants me to be

I don't always do what I want
I can't understand it
The reason why I prefer
What I shouldn't do

Yet you love me
Even though sometimes I stumble
In your arms I will surrender
I will always follow your light
I want to reciprocate your love
I want to reciprocate your love

And despite me, you will always be there
I am for you, you won't let go of me
And even though I'm not perfect
I am where He wants me to be

And despite how I've been
You have always blessed me
And I live convinced
That there is no one like you, Jesus

I took up my cross
It was to follow you
To sing to you and tell you
Thank you for what you did
Although my actions often hurt you
You don't want to leave my side

So you seek me and I go
And you find me where I am
I have your grace today
Despite how I am

Despite me, you continue with me
You never deny me the shelter of your embrace
If I fall, you lift me up and I continue
I wish to understand your love but I can't

I will love you forever, I will give you what you ask for
I will follow wherever you lead me
You know who I am when no one sees me
You know my heart more than I do

I know you are the standard
In your hands, I am a work of art
No one can match you
You are simply in a class of your own

And despite me, you will always be there
I am for you, you won't let go of me
And even though I'm not perfect
I am where He wants me to be

I don't want this fire inside me to go out
I give you the key to my heart
Because you, you are my air
You turned my lament into a dance
I will not let go of your hand
I will not let go of your hand
I will stay by your side
And I will not leave from here
And I will not leave from here

And despite the flaws
Your love does not remain silent
Come strengthen my courage
And if I step into the ring
And I don't measure up
You never throw in the towel

You saw in me what I don't see
You made me free when I was a prisoner
You are the Sun where I tan
My soul and the peace I possess

And you saw in me what I don't see
You made me free when I was a prisoner
You are the Sun where I tan
My soul and the peace I possess

And despite me, you will always be there
I am for you, you won't let go of me
And even though I'm not perfect
I am where He wants me to be
