For Those Who Wait cover
05. What I’ve Overcome
Album: For Those Who Wait
Artist: Fireflight
         
 

I’ve got this passion
It’s something I can’t describe
It’s so electric
It’s like I’ve just come alive
I feel this freedom
Now that my past is erased
I feel the healing
I found the meaning of grace
(I found grace)

If only you could see me yesterday
Who I used to be before the change
You’d see a broken heart
You’d see the battle scars
It’s funny how words can’t explain
How good it feels to finally break the chains
I’m not what I have done
I’m what I’ve overcome

I know I’ll stumble
I know I’ll still face defeat
These second chances will define me
So I’m moving forward
I’m standing on my two feet
I’ve got momentum
I’ve got someone saving me
(Got someone saving me)

I’ll make mistakes and I might fall
But I won’t break
I’ve got someone saving me

Behind the Song:
“The line in the chorus that really stands out to me is, ‘I'm not what I have done/I'm what I've overcome.’ And I think that's really important to realize, because there are so many people who are trying to get their points and their jewels in their crown, but it's not about all those good deeds they did. If you haven't experienced God and allowed Him to move in you while you're dealing with difficult things, it's really hard to grasp His love.” ~ Justin Cox (Fireflight)
