Rain down your tender mercies, cleanse my heart of dark secrecy,
You know how soon I’d buy back one second, if I could, of each hidden infidelity,
I’ve clothed myself in rags not robes.
Now I am stripped, I am naked,
I am humbled but not betrayed,
Still a tear mirrors the reflection of every blemish and every stain,
I am stripped but not afraid, yes.
Help me lay down my life, though sometimes this world wields a knife of anger and spite,
And I’m unclean, but cause your face to shine upon me, Father,
Let your hem brush my hand and I will be free.
Now I am stripped, I am naked,
I am humbled but not betrayed,
Still your love beyond expression laid bare my heart’s remains,
I am stripped but not afraid,
I am stripped but not afraid, yes.
