Lyrics:
Hiding out in this cave for better than forty days
Don’t know how much more cause it’s been just that long
Seasons came and they’ve gone but still I remain
So sick of singing the same sad song
When the foundation’s already been laid
Now all that’s left for me to do is to choose to embrace following You
Stepping out from the old into the new
I’ll be following right here behind You
You set me free to be myself but
The me in Your heart looks
Just like somebody else
Wasted years of my life worried over how
I could ever meet such expectations
But none of my former fears seem to matter now
That who I am is found within Your Son
My identity has been replaced
Bought with Your blood
I am completely covered by Your grace
To walk by faith
Stepping out from the old into the new
I’ll be following right here behind You
You set me free to be myself but
The me in Your heart looks
Just like somebody else
Stepping out from the old into the new
I’ll be following right here inside You
Who I was just don’t mean much
When the me in Your heart looks just like Jesus
I don’t want anything from this life that You don’t want for me
I don’t want anything from this life that You don’t want for me
I don’t want anything from this life that You don’t want for me
So won’t you come and make me into just who You want me to be
(Mike Weaver)
Behind the Song:
“If we are children of God and covered by the blood of Jesus, then when God looks at us He sees the perfection of the sacrifice of Jesus. When He sees us we look just like Jesus. For those of us stuck in the same-old same-old, one of the biggest obstacles preventing us from stepping into the new life that Christ offers is keeping our eyes on our failures of the past. Our challenge is to realize that who we are in Him isn’t the same as who we are in the natural. We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. We can now live lives in the natural that reflect the work that Christ has already accomplished in the Spirit.” – Mike Weaver (Big Daddy Weave)
