Look At Me Now

Nate Sallie


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 spec in my eye
I wander why they act surprised
About a little thing in my life when they're so blind

They knew me back when, and they all let me down
They never picked my up
When I was on the ground
But thanks be to God
He sent me some friends
Who knew what I could be
And didn't care where I'd been
And the future is a lonely place
If you're going with people who don't know heaven's grace

Chorus:
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
Not about, not about where I've been
All of my crimes have been paid
All of my prayers have been prayed
I once was lost
But now I'm found
So take a look at me now

So take a look at me now!

I'm looking at you
You're looking at me
Is sorta like staring back at history
Cause' in your head I'm frozen in time
I never took another step in your eyes
I wonder if one day you'll choose
To break away the cold and ice and find the truth

If you're hearing me now
You might stop and think
That I have got some bitterness in my drink
But I've 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 a life's not lived in one short episode

Repeat Chorus

Who am I
That my God would pay the price
To see that my life after death is divine
Take a look
Take a look at me now
Even though I had let Him down
I once was lost
But now I'm found
So take a look at me now

Repeat Chorus
