LAY ME BARE
Verse 1
In the quiet where no one sees,
Where even I avoid my eyes,
You speak without a thunder’s roar,
Yet truth cuts deeper than the lies.
No crowd, no judge, no courtroom sound—
Just light inside my chest,
And every shadow I have hidden
Rises, trembling, from its rest.
Verse 2
I dressed my wounds in borrowed strength,
I crowned my doubt with pride,
I named my distance “liberty”
While something slowly died.
But You did not expose to shame,
You uncovered me to heal—
You touched the places I concealed
And taught the numb to feel.
Chorus (Begin soft — explode second half)
Lay me bare before You, Lord,
Strip away disguise.
If I must break to know You more,
Then break me open wide.
Not my name, not what I’ve done,
Not the voices in my head—
Only mercy standing here
Where all my striving bled.
Verse 3
The fiercest judge was my own voice,
Replaying every fall,
But Yours was quiet—steady—near:
“I saw… I carried… all.”
No spectacle, no burning sky,
No sign for men to see—
Just holy light upon the wound
That would not let me flee.
Pre-Bridge (very soft, almost whispered)
You knew the worst of me…
And did not turn away.
Bridge (Build gradually — choir hum under it)
Search me till there’s nothing left
That trembles in the dark.
Shatter every secret throne
Still ruling in my heart.
If love must wound to make me whole,
Then let it pierce me through—
For I would rather ache in truth
Than breathe a lie with You.
(Band rises here)
Take the pride.
Take the fear.
Take the shame I’ve buried here.
All I am—
All I hide—
Lay it open. Crucify.
Final Chorus (Full choir, key lift possible)
Lay me bare before You, Lord,
No refuge but Your eyes.
If grace must break what I have built,
Then let the ruins rise.
Not my strength, not who I seem,
Not the mask I’ve worn instead—
Only mercy standing here
Where my resistance bled.
Outro (return to softness)
In the quiet…
I remain.
Not destroyed—
But changed.
Lay me bare.
