Kirk Franklin Look At Me Now Lyrics

Look At Me Now Lyrics

Persecuted, criticized, been denied and abandoned 

Pushed away, given
away, some days I couldn’t imagine 

Getting harder, getting colder, was
hard for me to see 

Tired of runnin’, tired of hurtin’, even got tired of
me 

Tired of cryin’, tired of tryin’ to forget my mistakes 

Tired of
bein’ in this storm, how much more can I take 

Many nights in my life,
tell me why 

I shed more tears, my eyes would allow 

And after all
that 



(Chorus)

Look at me now! 

I’m stronger this time
around! 

Not because I was so good, but somehow 

You looked past
where I was 

And you knew I’d come through cause You loved me 

Look
at me know! 

So many didn’t make it through 

That’s why this heart
belongs to only You! 

How can I complain ‘bout the pain I went through


Cause it grew me 

Look at me now! 



Had no hope, had
no future, even too hard to dream 

No one told me, “boy, you can be
whatever you want to be” 

Then You saved me and You gave me reason to
breathe again 

Not perfect, ya’ll, but I’m gon’ run ‘til I make it to the
end 

(It ain’t easy when your life’s filled with wounds that won’t heal)


And you fight through the lies trying to find what’s for real 

Everyone wants the prize but they can’t stand the pain 

The strength I
needed it came that night I cried out Your name 

To my people in the
struggle, all my soldiers and believers 

To my survivors of Rita, Katrina
and even FEMA!

(All things are working together for our good) 



(Chorus)

Look at me now! 

I’m stronger this time around! 

Not because I was so good, but somehow 

You looked past where I was


And you knew I’d come through cause You loved me 

Look at me know!


So many didn’t make it through 

That’s why this heart belongs to
only You! 

How can I complain ‘bout the pain I went through 

Cause
it grew me 

Look at me now! 



(Bridge)

Yes, I’ve seen
some hard times 

Some bad choices that I’ve made fell back on me 

But now it’s time to move on, move on 

Can’t let my past hold down my
destiny 

And even though I don’t always know 

Why you allow the
night to last so long 

But when I see the sunlight 

It was only to
make me strong 



Look at me… 

Look at me… 

Look at me…


Look at me, look at me



(Chorus)

Look at me now! 

I’m stronger this time around! 

Not because I was so good, but somehow


You looked past where I was 

And you knew I’d come through cause
You loved me 

Look at me know! 

So many didn’t make it through 

That’s why this heart belongs to only You! 

How can I complain ‘bout the
pain I went through 

Cause it grew me 

Look at me now! 



I’m better now! I’m closer now! 

I’m thankful now! I’m happy now! 

Look at me! Look at me! 

I’m stronger now! I’m patient now! 

I’m
grateful now! I’ll praise you now! 

Look at me! Look at me!
