this is for you.

for the one who never feels good enough.

for the one who keeps failing.

for the one who thinks they have all the answers.

for the one who never feels understood or seen.

for the one who pretends to be something they’re not.

for the one at a dead end.

for the one who doesn’t know who they are anymore.

for the one who is searching.

mistakes aren’t the end of your story.

shame is not what defines you.

perfection doesn’t either.

religion will break your heart.

God never will.

for anyone who ever wondered if Jesus is really enough.

this project was made for you.

for the ones who cheered this onward.

to my momma,

you saved my life. giants was written for you. it’s your battle cry. thank you for knowing what’s real and for always standing in love. it’s changed my life. glory to God, i’ll never be the same.
to papa d & mama d,

thank you for everything. you’ve loved me unconditionally.
to lonnie & margie,

you opened a church for me to play to empty walls and saw me when i wanted to stay hidden. thank you for ushering in the start of this little miracle.
to erika, will, & hannah,

you three were a safe place for me to land without judgement or shame. you heard my heart in a way no one else did, and you stayed gentle with me. thank you, thank you, thank you.
to mary & daniel,

you drove eight hours to capture 36 hours of memories. the two of you are deeply special to me. what an honor to call you family.
to tanner,

since childhood, you’ve always shown up. you’ve always listened. you are in my best memories and my most challenging moments. you’ve made me laugh until i’ve cried and then laugh again. no matter the season, you have never wavered. i’m thankful for who you are.
to jeremy,

you’re one of a kind. i’ve learned more from this process than i ever thought possible.
to kley,

you’ve been one of my biggest cheerleaders since we were barely teenagers. to this day you’ll fall asleep to poorly recorded music on our flip phones from college stairwells. you’ve always found the gold even when i‘ve only seen the mess. what a gift you are.
to you,

listening. thank you for taking the time. wherever you are, you’re loved. this is for you.

lyrics

uncovered (intro)

you see the least and strengthen the weak / like a shepherd boy and the woman who bleeds / from the unseen to powerful kings / any heart in your hands can do great things
with you water flows from desert rocks/ and when you speak storms have to stop / only your kingdom crowns the least / from shore to shore you split the sea
you, only you, you see me
you’re the God of impossible things / you spoke the world in a word / and you speak my name / because you’re for me I’ll never be the same / and with you I can do impossible things
you, only you, you see me
giants

you hold the sea back / you ground my feet / even the wind breathes of all you’re doing
whatever comes with the night / the sun will always rise / i know what you said and i believe / whatever comes with the night / the sun will always rise/ i know what you said and i believe
giants fall, when you speak / blind see, when you speak / giants fall, when you speak / blind see, when you speak
when hearts are breaking / when knees are shaking / our God’s not done yet / march around every wall / watch every weapon fall / our God still wakes the dead / your God still wakes the dead
whatever comes with the night / the sun will always rise / i know what you said and i believe
voices

these voices haunted you / because you’re more than you knew / whatever talks so loud in your mind / not every voice is mine
there’s never shame, there’s never shame / i’ll never break your heart / i’m always peace, i’m always strength / my every hope is yours
i sound like the wind / and fire in night skies / and sea waves calming / and my voice is in your chest / a part of every breath
these voices haunting you / twisting every truth / whatever lies so loud in your mind / learn what voice is mine
hallelujah, you speak the better word / hallelujah, we believe it / hallelujah, we’re standing on your word
there’s never shame, there’s never shame / i’ll never break your heart / i’m always peace, i’m always strength / my every hope is yours
lights

there's a softness to her fire / and sails take her higher / but there's a look in the flames / now i'm calling to the lights / in the corners of her night / singing, fight, fight
i remember the look in your eyes / forehead pressed to mine / what beautiful pain is this / i wonder if you had regret / or relief when the water turned red / and your light dimmed
oh, at the end of your night / i see light, i see light, i see light / oh, at the end of your day darkness fade, light remain, light remain / light remain and take you away / take you away / take you away
now i'm calling to the lights / in the corners of the night / singing, fight / stay alive
ninety nine

i thought i knew who i was / i thought i knew who you were / the more i lived, the more undid / until we were strangers
even my good felt dark / even your love felt earned / i did the best i could / but i never knew your heart
and it took a thousand tries / you came ten thousand times / i knew you’d leave the ninety nine
you’re only good, you’re only good / you’re always good to me / you’re full of grace, you took my place / and the one was me
i thought i knew who i was / i thought i knew who you were / the more i’ve lived, the more i’ve seen / who you are for me
you’re only good, you’re only good / you’re always good to me / you’re full of grace, you took my place / and the one was me
free

i didn’t know how much you were for me / every sunrise was designed for my eyes / even now if i just touch the hem of you / it will change everything i ever knew
oh Jesus be so near / you’re always good / you’re always good / you’re always here
i didn’t know your love felt like this / your grace changes anything i’ll ever face / every time i take one step towards you / all of heaven is for me too
hallelujah / on my darkest day / hallelujah / i was never alone / hallelujah/ on my darkest day / hallelujah / i was never alone
