G / Am / | Em / C / | G / Am / | Em / C /

[VERSE 1]
G                         Am
I’ve come before You with crafted prayers
Em                        C
Cleaned up the version of what I share
G                     Am
Saying the things I’m supposed to
Em                   C
Bottling up what I’m going through
G                    Am
Afraid of unraveling into a mess
   Em                   C
So I fake a smile in my Sunday best
G                    Am
Hiding the pain underneath it
Em                       C
Hoping You don’t find my weakness 

[PRE CHORUS]
    D                    Em         C
But You see right through  me and invite me to a place
      D             Em     C
Where my broken pieces can fall right into grace 
 
[CHORUS]
G           Am               Em              C
It’s enough just to be loved I don’t have to earn Your heart 
G             Am              Em            C
Just be held, just be myself, I can rest in who You are ‘cause
G                        Am   
  You’re not looking for perfection, and I
Em                  C
 Already have Your affection and
G          Am                Em                C
It’s enough just to be loved, just to be loved  by You

[INSTRUMENTAL]

G / Am / | Em / C / | G / Am / | Em / C /

[VERSE 2]
    G                      Am
The greater the shame of a wounded soul
    Em                    C
The deeper the healing of mercy goes
G                    Am
I’m telling all of my secrets
Em                    C
I know that You can redeem them

[PRE CHORUS] 

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE 1] [x2]
  G              Am       Em       C                G
I don’t have to be anything but completely loved by You
            Am                Em           C
It’s enough just to be loved,  it’s enough just to be loved


[BRIDGE 2] 
         G      Am   Em   C        G     Am
Oh, it’s enough…             I  am loved
Em  C
      I’m loved by You

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE 1] [x2]
