Tenth Avenue North

These are lyrics from a Tenth Avenue North song called  "You are More". I think that it can reach everyone and it is an amazing song. 
 
There's a girl in the corner, With tear stains on her eyes, From the places she's wandered, And the shame she can't hide, She says, "How did I get here?, I'm not who I once was, And I'm crippled by the fear, That I've fallen too far to love"

But don't you know who you are, What's been done for you?

You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

Well she tries to believe it, That she's been given new life, But she can't shake the feeling, That it's not true tonight, She knows all the answers And she's rehearsed all the lines And so she'll try to do better But then she's too weak to try

But don't you know who you are?

'Cause this is not about what you've done,
But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been,
But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel,
But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved.
