As I Am (The Violet Burning)

We had a couple portable CD players & had the song “As I Am” by The Violet Burning & had people read the lyrics & think about what it means for them.

AS I AM

Mary, she knows
In a world that’s dark, torn apart at the seams
She lifts up her eyes, up to the skies and sings,
“I am my beloved’s and he loves me as I am.”

Sometimes I cry
‘Cause the world, it’s dark – torn apart at the seams
I lift up my eyes, up the skies and sing,
“I am my beloved’s and he loves me as I am.”

Sometimes it’s hard
Though patiently, you wait for the time to see
Whose are you? (tell me) whose are you?
“I am my beloved’s and he loves me as I am.”

Light of the world, please come shine on me
My beloved

Sometimes I cry
‘Cause the world that’s dark, torn apart at the seams
Sometimes I cry for I am weak
“I am my beloved’s and he loves me as I am.”

Light of the world, please come shine on me

We also had the following sheet up & paper to write on: How do you see yourself? How do you think others see you? How do you think God sees you?
