The Uncovering

We've all covered up our hurts and pains
We've all tried to bury our sin and shame
We’ve given our testimonies from Sunday to Sunday
Giving honor to God, who is the head of our lives
Only giving the edited versions, and leaving out the details
That destroys yokes, and brings others from darkness into the light
Jesus bore all on the cross, so that the whole truth could be seen
Now the time has come for our uncovering

I know that it hurts to pull bandages away from the pains of our past
There’s no such thing as an “ouchless” bandage for our feelings
Sometimes we just have to let our wounds get some air
In order for us to be set free, and truly receive our healing

Jesus bore more on the cross, than any of us ever will
We must consider it all joy, pray, and we will endure
Don’t worry about how, but let go, and let God
So we can complete His good and perfect will

I pray that one day, He will give me the strength and courage
To stand and tell my entire story
So that I can let you know all about God's grace and mercy
To explain how He pulled my soul out of the trash, and recycled me

Jesus bore all on the cross,
so that we would no longer be bound
But that we all might be set free
So now my friends, the time has come
for our uncovering
