Lyrics
I came to the well
I came as a leper
I searched high and low but
I found no other help
But I heard of your healing
And I came in hope
Of finding the one my scars won't scare away
Oh your touch is all I've needed
Oh your touch is all I've needed
You reach out your hand
And I'm made whole again
Oh your touch is all I've needed
So I fell to your feet
Knowing I was unworthy
Then you reached out to me
And you lifted my head
You said don't be afraid
I'm here and I'm willing
To take these scars and give new life again
Oh your touch is all I've needed
Oh your touch is all I've needed
You reach out your hand
And I'm made whole again
Oh your touch is all I've needed
He touched meI used to believe
So many stories
That You wouldn’t like me
If You knew me
That I have to strive
To see Your glory
I was taught to believe
That You were distant
That You’d strike me down
If I had missed it
That Grace wasn’t free
l’d have to earn it, to earn it
But I’m unlearning and
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
Now I know the truth
I used to think
That You were angry
That there were conditions
To Your Mercy
And if I worked hard enough
Then You Would save me
You would save me
But I’m unlearning and
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
( I’ve never been so glad
To get it wrong)
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
(Cause now my heart
Can sing a different Song)
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
Now I know the truth
The truth is You’re patient
The truth is You’re kind
The truth is You’re gracious
And You’re so good all the time
The truth is You’re faithful
When I have failed to be
The truth is You love, You love
You love me unconditionally
Thank you Jesus
I’ll sing like nobody’s listening
I’ll dance like nobody’s watching
I can’t help it now that
I know the truth about You
The truth about You
I’ll sing like nobody’s listening
I’ll dance like nobody’s watching
I can’t help it now that
I know the truth about You
The truth about You
I’ll sing like nobody’s listening
I’ll dance like nobody’s watching
I can’t help it now that
I know the truth about You
The truth about You
I’ll sing like nobody’s listening
I’ll dance like nobody’s watching
I can’t help it now that
I know the truth about You
The truth about You
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
( I’ve never been so glad
To get it wrong)
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
(Cause now my heart
Can sing a different Song)
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
I’m so glad
I was wrong about You
Now I know the truth
And now l know the truth
It set me free
And now I know the truth
It set me free
Obsessed with me
And now I know the truth

He touched me
He touched my soul
Thank you Jesus
I'm made whole

Meaning & Inspiration
“Wrong About You” contrasts fearful ideas about God with the mercy revealed through Jesus. The lyrics move from shame, distance, and striving toward assurance that grace is freely given. Images of a leper approaching for healing and being made whole frame that change in deeply personal terms, while the recurring confession of having been wrong emphasizes a corrected understanding of God’s character.
The healing scenes recall Gospel accounts in which Jesus willingly touches and cleanses a leper, particularly Mark 1:40-42. The description of God as patient, kind, gracious, and faithful also reflects the qualities associated with divine love in Scripture. John 8:32 is directly echoed in the repeated claim that knowing the truth brings freedom. Across its repeated sections, the song presents salvation as received rather than earned. Joyful singing and dancing then become responses to mercy, replacing the fear that acceptance depends on flawless effort.
