What It's Like To Be Known lyrics

When your heart breaks wide open And you’re scared of your own emotion But for a moment you don’t feel so alone This is what it’s like to be known When you’re on your knees in the kitchen Just asking Jesus to listen ‘Cause you can’t hold the weight on your own This is what it’s like to be known When your mama knows the state you’re in Even when you’re good at faking it Like she sees all the fragments of your soul This is what it’s like to be known When a breath of holy friendship Can take your heart and mend it Remind you of who you are and where you’re going Oh, this is what it’s like to be known Oh and standing by the ocean Makes you feel so unimportant Just a temporary piece of the whole Oh, this is what it’s like to be known When the gravity of grace Wraps you up in her embrace And you don’t deserve the mercy you’re shown Oh, this is what it’s like to be known I have loved you when you’re not easy to love Does it scare you that I'm never giving up? Don’t you believe me when I tell you this home? And this is what it’s like to be known
