Ursula Pieters-Only God Knows

[Verse 1]
I've walked through things I never thought I'd face,
I've cried so many tears behind a smiling face.
I've made mistakes, I've carried pain,
I've lost some things I can't explain.
People see the pieces,
But they don't know where they came from.
They don't know all the battles
Or the nights I've prayed alone.

[Chorus]
Only God knows my story,
From the beginning to today.
He knows every tear I've cried,
Every time I lost my way.
People can judge me,
They can talk about my name,
But they weren't there through every storm,
They didn't feel my pain.
Only God knows my heart,
Only God knows what I've been through.
And through everything that's happened,
I'm still holding on to You.

[Verse 2]
I've watched the people that I love
Get hurt along the way.
I've carried guilt and questions
That I don't know how to explain.
I've been called names by people
Who don't know what's inside.
I've been misunderstood and broken,
But I still chose love instead of pride.

[Bridge]
Lord, You know my children,
You know how much I care.
You know the choices that I've made,
The burdens that I bear.
When everyone is speaking,
You're the One who knows the truth.
So take my broken pieces, Lord,
And make me whole in You.

[Final Chorus]
Only God knows my story,
Only God has seen it all.
Every time I fell down,
Every time I chose to stand tall.
I won't pretend I'm perfect,
I won't hide the things I've done.
I'm just a woman trying to heal,
Trying to find my way back home.

Let them talk about my story,
Let them believe what they believe.
God knows the tears behind my eyes,
And the heart inside of me.
Through the hurt, through the questions,
Through the things I can't undo,
I'm placing all my story
In the hands of You.

[Outro]
From the beginning to the end,
You were there when no one knew.
You know my heart,
You know my story.
And I'm still holding on to You.
