Verse 1 I’m thankful for the truth that cuts through the night, Pulls the veil back, brings shadows to light. It don’t always feel easy, don’t always feel kind, But it breaks every chain that was built on a lie. What I thought was protecting me kept me confined, Now I’m breathing in freedom with open eyes. Pre-Chorus It wasn’t loud, it wasn’t proud, Just steady as the morning sun. Chorus I’m thankful for the truth that exposes the lies, For the grace that meets me where I hide. For the righteousness that covers my shame, When I don’t have the strength to say my name. And I’m grateful for the peace that steadies my steps, When the road gets narrow and my heart feels stretched. I didn’t earn it, I didn’t pretend— I just received what You freely give. Verse 2 I’m thankful I don’t have to prove I belong, Don’t have to wear my past like a badge or a scar. You took what was broken, called it redeemed, Wrote a new story where the old one had been. I laid my regrets at the foot of the cross, Found mercy waiting—never counting the cost. Pre-Chorus What I couldn’t fix with all my might You restored with love, not judgment or fight. Chorus I’m thankful for the truth that exposes the lies, For the grace that meets me where I hide. For the righteousness that covers my shame, When I don’t have the strength to say my name. And I’m grateful for the peace that steadies my steps, When the road gets heavy and the future’s unclear yet. I didn’t earn it, I didn’t defend— I just leaned in and let You lead me again. Bridge When my mind starts racing, when fear speaks loud, Your peace pulls me back, puts my feet on the ground. Not the absence of trouble, not the end of the storm, Just the calm assurance that I’m held and I’m known. Final Chorus (Lift) I’m thankful for the truth that keeps me awake, For the love that never walks away. For the righteousness that calls me clean, And the peace that walks slow beside me. Every breath, every step, every yes, every bend— I’m covered, I’m carried, I’m held to the end. Outro (quiet, resolute) So I walk it out—not perfect, just free, Truth before me… Peace beneath my feet.

Perfect Peace
