I’ve searched for meaning
I’ve searched for peace
I’ve sought the Father
And the battle’s brought me to my knees
Yeah, I know anger
I know despair
I know the darkness
And it knows me
Oh, it knows me
I’ve fought dejection
As it reached to my core
I’ve fought desire
Oh, but I lost that war
My sin accusing
I tried to disagree
But I know the shame
And it knows me
Oh, it knows me
Crying out for hope
Came the gospel memory
He bore my pain
And He knows me
Praise God, He knows me
Rest my soul, grace set me free
He knows my sins, yet He loves me
And He knows what I will yet be

But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities;
The punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed.
The poem I wrote above was inspired while listening to the song “It Knows Me” by Avi Kaplan. It reflects my journey.
