I Never Thought

I never thought
I was good enough.
I never knew
I was strong enough.

I thought I'd always be
So lost, so hurt and painfull.
I never would have thought
That one night could change my mind.

I have always hid.
You have never looked.
But when I was found by chance,
I was convinced it wasn't luck at all.

I never would have gone,
Never thought it'd matter.
But then I never would have seen
How wrong I always was.

I was led right to him,
A name on a card in my hand.
It was meant to be, I know it,
Or God never loved me.

He opened my eyes,
Showed me I could be worth something,
Because I didn't have to hide, to lie,
Or turn away because I wasn't good enough.

He found the light in me,
And brought it out to shine.
Let me be me,
And I knew it was ok to give in this time.

I never would have thought
That a name card could mean so much more.
Or love could be so painless,
And I could live without dying everyday.

But now I don't just think, I know,
I am good enough and strong enough.
For when you took me by the hand, showed me my light
You made me stop and think, just once, I may be wrong about life.
