You Loved Me Anyway - The Sidewalk Prophets

I feel like this sometimes.  Ok, maybe a lot...

The question was raised
As my conscience fell.
A silly, little lie.
It didn’t mean much,
But it lingers still
In the corners of my mind.

Still You call me to walk
On the edge of this world.
To spread my dreams and fly
But the future’s so far.
My heart is so frail
I think I’d rather stay inside

But You love me anyway
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known
Yes, You love me anyway

Oh Lord, how You love me
How You love me

It took more than my strength
To simply be still.
To seek but never find
All the reasons we change
The reasons I doubt.
And why do loved ones have to die?

But You love me anyway
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known
Yes, You love me anyway

Oh Lord, how You love me

I am the thorn in Your crown
But You love me anyway
I am the sweat from Your brow
But You love me anyway
I am the nail in Your wrist
But You love me anyway
I am Judas’ kiss
But You love me anyway

See now, I am the man who yelled out from the crowd
For Your blood to be spilled on this earth shaking ground.
Yes then, I turned away with a smile on my face,
With this sin in my heart tried to bury Your grace.
And then alone in the night, I still called out for You
So ashamed of my life.

But You love me anyway
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known
Yes,You love me anyway

Oh Lord, how You love me
You love me, yes You love me
How You love me

He loves you regardless of you.  Here's the video...

He Loves me anyway,
Bruce
