Lyrics of 'Shame Off' by Mandisa

There's a million different ways I compare me to someone else
There's a million little lies that my heart likes to always tell
Like I'm a loser, always a failure
I make the same mistakes over and over
But it's time I finally stop talking down, beating up myself

I'm gonna take the shame off
Stop believing what I know ain't true
I'm gonna put Your grace on
And wear it proud like You want me to
You've taken all of this heaviness off of me
You have changed my old identity
So I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off

I'm replacing I am weak with the fact that I'm strong in You
Changing how I look at me, gonna see from Your point of view
You call me blameless, You call me chosen
You make a masterpiece out of my broken
And You tell me I'm enough, I'm complete and I'm loved by You

I'm gonna take the shame off
Stop believing what I know ain't true
I'm gonna put Your grace on
And wear it proud like You want me to
You've taken all of this heaviness off of me
You have changed my old identity
So I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off!
Shame off!

Shame says I'm worthless, a lost hopeless case
Shame tells me I've been forgotten by grace
But shame is defeated when I speak Your name
I speak Your name

I'm gonna take the shame off!
Stop believing what I know ain't true
I'm gonna put Your grace on
And wear it proud like You want me to
You've taken all of this heaviness off of me
You have changed my old identity
So I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off!

I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off
I'm gonna take the shame off
O...o-o-o-o o-oh
O...o-o-o-o o-oh
