He Knows My Name in Francesca Battistelli

Spent today in a conversation
In the mirror face to face with
Somebody less than perfect
I wouldn’t choose me first if
I was looking for a champion
In fact I’d understand if
You picked everyone before me
But that’s just not my story

True to who you are
You saw my heart
And made something out of nothing, so

I don’t need my name in lights
I’m famous in my father’s eyes
Make no mistake
He knows my name
I’m not living for applause
I’m already so adored
It’s all his stage
He knows my name
He knows my name

I’m not meant to just stay quiet
I’m meant to be a lion
I’ll roar beyond a song
With every moment that I’ve got

True to who you are
You saw my heart
And made something out of nothing

He calls me chosen
Free, forgiven
Wanted, child of the king
His forever
Held and treasured
I am loved

I don’t need my name in lights
I’m famous in my father’s eyes
