Who Am I?

I looked in the mirror,
A reflection I see.
But things don't get clearer,
When who I seek is me.

Sometimes I wonder,
What lies beneath this facade?
If it was torn asunder,
Of whose image I am made?

'Tis a thinly veiled life,
When behind masks we hide.
But if only we were to realise,
That every face is far too wide.

Who am I?
I do not know.
This question,
Upon myself I bestow.

Hence, I searched high and low,
For more than a name or so.
And in that searching I found,
Something greater far is bound.

Who am I?
I still do not know.
But in confidence now, I can boast;
I am Yours.

Casting Crowns - Who Am I

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are

I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are

I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

I am Yours
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
'Cause I am Yours
I am Yours
