Pencil marks on a wall, I wasn't always this tall You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed You watched my team win, You watched my team lose You watched when my bicycle went down again And when I was weak, unable to speak Still I could call You by name And I said, "Elbow Healer, Superhero Come if You can" and You said, "I Am" Only sixteen, life is so mean What kind of curfew is at ten p.m.? You saw my mistakes, You watched my heart break Heard when I swore I'd never love again And when I was weak, unable to speak Still I could call You by name And I said, "Heartache Healer, Secret Keeper Be my best friend and You said, "I Am" You saw me wear white by pale candlelight I said, "Forever to what lies ahead" Two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream Too much it might seem when it is two a.m. And when I am weak, unable to speak Still I will call You by name Oh, Shepherd, Savior, Pasture Maker Hold onto my hand, You say, "I Am" The winds of change and circumstance Blow in and all around us So we find a foothold that's familiar And bless the moments that we feel You nearer When life had begun, I was woven and spun You let the angels dance around the throne And who can say when, but they'll dance again When I am free and finally headed home I will be weak, unable to speak Still I will call You by name Creator, Maker, Life Sustainer, Comforter, Healer, my Redeemer Lord and King, Beginning and the End I Am Yes, I Am
