I Am Just a Woman
song nine from album After Six Days
I am Just a Woman (Gen. 3, Rev. 21:3-5.) I wrote this song Jan. 19, 2005. I had been talking to a friend of mine and was still thinking about her and our conversation and I wrote down the first two lines. By the third line, I was writing for myself and for all of us. I don't want to say too much about the song because I really want it to speak for itself. Although there are other passage relevant to this song, that give the song more layers, (I'll list them below) the main Scripture references are Gen. 3 and Rev. 21:3-5. They are what I was thinking about. This is a confession. Even this can and will be transformed.
Gen. 3, Rev. 21:3-5, John 8:1-11
I am Just a Woman Lyrics
I am just a woman
I've come a long way
Standing here before You
I've always been in this place
Beauty is one of my names
But I lost it a long time ago
And I've been searching for ages
But I can't find my way home
Forgive me
Forgive me for what I have not been
Forgive me for what I am
and for this mess, that we're in
Forgive me
I no longer know my name
And I don't remember the terrible thing that happened
But I feel it all the same
I know too well where I've been
And I'm
covered in shame
I am just a woman
I've got a long way to go
Standing here before You
Somehow I've always known
Mystery is one of my names
But I've misused it for so long
Using it to play my games
To cover up that I'm not strong
to cover up that I was wrong
Forgive me
Forgive me for what I have not been
Forgive me for what I am
and for this mess, that we're in
Forgive me
I no longer know my name
And I don't remember the terrible thing that happened
But I feel it all the same
I know, too well, where I've been
And I'm
Covered in shame
I am just a woman
I don't know where I need to go
Standing here before You
I'm not sure I've ever known
Love is one of my names
But I lost it a long time ago
And I've been searching for ages
But I can't find my way home
Forgive me
I no longer know my name
And I don't remember the terrible thing that happened
But I feel it all the same
I know, too well, where I've been
And I'm
covered in shame
One
left His place to look for me
He sought me in dark places
walked to the edge of eternity
and looked beyond
When He turns His eyes on me
They see the deepest parts
And I know that He can lead me home
I am just a woman
You know where I need to go
Standing here before You
I think You've always known
Eternity is one of my names
That You gave me a long time ago
And You'll restore my names at the end of the age
When You've brought me back to my home
And I will be
A woman.
