Verse 1

I’ve known the shadows in a holy place
I’ve felt betrayal as it kissed my face

Verse 2

I’ve seen some towers built
And watched a palace fall
Still You were in the middle of it all

Verse 3

I’ve seen seasons come to painful ends
Stood at the edge and seen
What could have been

Verse 4

Sometimes it hurts to see
The writing on the wall
Still You were in the middle of it all

Chorus

Who am I to trade away
The bitter for the sweet
I’m so sick of crying
But these tears can wash Your feet
I’m sorry that
I’ve wondered
If You hear me when I call
Still You are in the middle of it all

I got tired of searching for stolen things
And I’m still learning what forgiveness means

Verse 6

God give me strength enough
To give it after all
Cause You are in the middle of it all

Chorus

Who am I to trade away
The bitter for the sweet
I’m so sick of crying
But these tears can wash Your feet
I’m sorry that
I’ve wondered
If You hear me when I call
Still You are in the middle of it all

Crying Father take this cup from me

Bridge 2

So who am I to take
The bitter from it all
For every broken heart You took the fall
