Dedicated in the church by my Pappy's hands Sat up straight, said the prayers 'Cause my daddy said to J birthmark on my forehead Momma said that it meant I would be led To be someone set apart in this world For You But I wanted to see Who I would be, without You Like a genie in a bottle Only calling when I'd struggle 'Cause it was all I knew to do But I'm glad that I know You now Like I never knew before Oh, I'm glad that I see You now Lifted the veil and now I'm sure It was true what they talked about You're faithful then, and forever more Oh, I'm glad I know You now Like I didn't before Singing with the band by the age of 12 Stage fright, but I tried 'cause they said I did well Telling me my purpose like they knew me Said God was shining bright right through me Must've been a lie—put Him aside, everything fell So I tried to break free From the pain they didn't see Without You Got baptized in the water But questioned if I was Your daughter I didn't know about the love You had for me But I'm glad that I know You now Like I never knew before Oh, I'm glad that I see You now Lifted the veil and now I'm sure It was true what they talked about You're faithful then, and forever more Oh, I'm glad I know You now Like I didn't before Faithful through the generations When they prayed for me You listened You followed me, I heard You calling me Faithful to my grandma Faithful to my momma Now You're faithful to me You heard my cries at 17 When I tried to tuck away the grief It was eating me They didn't see it in me So I tried to run away from You But You chased me down 'Cause You weren't through With what You started in me Now I see But I'm glad that I know You now Like I never knew before Oh, I'm glad that I see You now Lifted the veil and now I'm sure It was true what they talked about You're faithful then, and forever more Oh, I'm glad I know You now Like I didn't before
