The One You Love – Maverick City Music Lyrics

I can be real with You
Say anything and not be afraid
You made me and You like what you made
You made me and You don’t make mistakes
I can be real with You

You take me just as I am
You choose me all over again
‘Cause I am the one You love
I am the one You love
I don’t have to prove anything
There’s room at Your table for me
‘Cause I am the one You love
I am the one You love

I know You’re proud of me
Even though I don’t deserve it sometimes
No, I’m not a perfect child
But I still make my Father smile
I know You’re proud of me

You take me just as I am
You choose me all over again
I am the one You love
I am the one You love
I don’t have to prove anything
There’s room at Your table for me
I am the one You love
Yes, I am the one You love

You take me just as I am
You choose me all over again
I am the one You love
I am the one You love
I don’t have to prove anything
There’s room at Your table for me
I am the one You love
I am the one You love

It’s me you love
I know you love me
The real me
You know everything and you still love me
You know everything and you still love me

They’ll leave over a rumor but You stay with the truth

Your love, your love never fails
Your love never fails

I am the one You love
I am the one You love
I am the one You love

Your love, your love never fails
Your love never fails

Always pursuing love
Even though I’m not worthy
Always chasing love
I’m undeserving
But You call me friend
Hey, You call me brother
Hey, how could this be?
A king, my friend
His righteousness
But still my friend
In all His holiness
And still my friend
Even though he’s perfect
He’s still my friend
He is closer than a brother
Than a mother or a father
Still my friend
In all his greatness and his holiness
Still my friend
