According To God Lyrics

I'm a believer
Sometimes I believe the lies of the deceiver
The lies of seeds when they sprout
They lead to seasons of spiritual amnesia
Deep seeded self doubt
That creeps in my conscious feeds my fear
And keeps me up at night conquered by
Critical thoughts my mind is prone to conjure
When it wanders, watching my failures, play back play back on repeat
Im trying to change the chain of events but
Can't rewind to find the delete, button to push
I'm on the edge its like the world is about to end
I'm in the middle of armagaddon with
No arms, no weapons, no armor for protection
It's the testing of my faith and
I know the answers but instead I'm just guessing
Like I forgot that God was my father and
I was set apart for his on possession
His word is my armor and my protection
Against the enemy's deception
But I still question
How can i receive
Such an incredible blessing when I feel like I'm less than
Because I went through a divorce am I
A second rate Christian I know that's a lie
So I won't listen through Christ I'm forgiven
Im being formed into his image
According to God I'm was called from darkness into his marvelous light
He is near to the broken hearted faithful to finish what he started

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

As a child I struggled to
Identify most of my misplaced anger and rage
Dealing with a whole emotion of consequences
Based on the way I was raised
The feeling for affection and affirmation
Adjusted performance to get attention and
Gain some sort of acceptance but found
I was always rejected and pushed away
Deep scars feeling of not belonging
Caused hall emotional walls and any
Attempt to recover from a lost of
Confidence was incredibly small
The residual effects of abandonment
Had me observing my character flaws
And viewing them all as insufficiently
Capable of relating or growing with God
I believed these lies to be true for me
My experience was the proof for me
Up to the point where I can sense Christ
Relentless love and complete pursuit of me
And spoke to me offering me hope and life
Through his word showing me his beauty
Changing my perception and giving me
Perspective of the way God truly viewed me
A man who was prized and pardoned
And chosen before the world's foundation
His whole possession, his royal priesthood
I'm part of his holy nation
I'm his friend, I'm valued completely cared for
Enough for Christ to purchase
According to God I'm an adopted child
With intimate access created with purpose

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
