Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know God and you know God too
But the way I know him may not look like you
The way I hear his voice, the way he speaks to me
May not match your story but it's still God
You don't get to measure how he led me
You don't get to limit what he showed me
Just because my path looks unfamiliar
Doesn't mean my faith is any less real
You didn't call me, you didn't choose me
You didn't anoint me, God did all
[Chorus]
I'm a child of God, that's who I am
Not by opinion but by his hand
You don't define me, you never could
I'm standing right here covered in grace
Called by God and that's enough
Called by God, I'm a child of God
[Verse 2]
I was born for this, I was called for this
Before the noise, before the questions
God saw me when nobody else did
God trusted me with what he placed in me
You see me, he sees obedience
You see tools, he sees purpose
You're looking at the sound, he's looking at the heart
You don't know my prayer, you don't know my tears
You don't know the night he made me right here
[Chorus]
I'm a child of God, that's who I am
Not by tradition but by his plan
You don't define me, you never could
I'm standing right here covered in grace
Called by God and that's enough
Called by God, I'm a child of God
[Bridge]
He called me before you noticed
He covered me before you judged me
He walks with me, he speaks to me
He knows my name personally
I don't need permission to worship him
I don't need approval to follow him
God is with me, I'm standing by
Chosen by God
[Outro]
That's who I am
Not by your rules but by his hand
Say what you want, believe what you will
I'm standing right here doing his will
Child of God, God knows me, God chose me
God knows me, God chose me
That settles it
