look at me now lyrics

Sitting at home, washing my feet
Watching all the people go by my street
They're letting me know, they're walking on by
Because I had a little speck in my eye

And I wonder why they act surprised
About a little thing in my life when they're so blind, yeah

They knew me back when then they all let me down
They never picked me up when I was on the ground
But thanks be to God who sent me some friends
Who knew what I could be and didn't care what I been

I know future is a lonely place
If you're going with people who don't know Heaven's grace

Take a look, take a look at me now
Don't you look, don't you look at me then
It's all about, all about where I'm going
And not about, not about where I been

And all of my trumps have been paid
All of my prayers have been prayed
And I once was lost but now I'm found
So take a look at me now, yeah
Take a look at me now, dig it

Looking at you, looking at me
The sought I like staring back at history
'Cause in your head I put it in time
I never took another stare in your eyes

And I wonder if one day you'll choose
To break away the coded ice and find the truth, no

If you're hearing me now, you might stop and think
That I have got some bitterness in my dreams
But I got a taste of something brand new
And all I want for you is to taste it too

It's a wonderful thing to know
That our life's not lived in one show at the soap, no

Take a look, take a look at me now
Don't you look, don't you look at me then
It's all about, all about where I'm going
And not about, not about where I been

And all of my trumps have been paid
All of my prayers have been prayed
I once was lost but now I'm found

Who am I, that my God would pay the price
To see that my life [Incomprehensible]

And take a look, take a look at me now
Even though I had let Him down, yeah
I once was lost but now I'm found
So take a look at me now

Take a look at me now
Don't you look at me then, yeah
It's all about where I'm going
Not about where I been, no, no, no, no

And take a look, take a look at me now
Even though I had let Him down
And I once was lost but now I'm found, yeah

Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
