i stood in the ashes of who i used to be...
hands dirty... heart heavy... soul questioning...
"how can you use me... after everything i've done?"
but then i heard it... not loud... but undeniable...
"whom shall i send...
and who will go for us?"
(pause... heartbeat rises)
and something in me... broke... then stood up.
here i am... send me
through the pain, through the scars, yeah i still believe
here i am... send me
if nobody else will go, lord i'll take the lead
i was lost in the dark, now i finally see
you called my name when i couldn't breathe
i ain't perfect but you chose me
here i am... send me
i was running from the truth, yeah i buried my soul
tried to fill empty spaces with a temporary role
burned every bridge, yeah i walked through the fire
smiled on the outside, inside i was tired
felt like job when everything was stripped away
friends turned ghosts, couldn’t recognize my face
had dirt on my name, shame pooling in my veins
still you whispered through the storm and called my name
i said "god... you got the wrong one, i’m flawed"
hands ain’t clean, i’ve been at war with my thoughts
but grace hit different when it pulled me from the pit
you don’t call the qualified — you qualify the picked
here i am... send me
through the pain, through the scars, yeah i still believe
here i am... send me
if nobody else will go, lord i'll take the lead
i was lost in the dark, now i finally see
you called my name when i couldn't breathe
i ain't perfect but you chose me
here i am... send me
i tried to ignore it, drown it out with the noise
but the calling don’t fade, it just breaks through the void
late nights, no sleep, wrestling with purpose
fighting my flesh while my spirit kept working
felt unworthy, like "who am i to speak?"
but god don’t need perfect — he just needs “yes” from me
from the mud to the mission, from the pain to the plan
he took a broken soul and rebuilt the man
i seen darkness up close, yeah i lived in the storm
so when i speak light now — it’s real, it’s born
from addiction, from struggle, from losing control
now i stand as a witness — he restored my soul
here i am... send me
if nobody else will go, lord i'll take the lead
through the pain, through the scars, yeah i still believe
here i am... send me
i was lost in the dark, now i finally see
you called my name when i couldn't breathe
i ain't perfect but you chose me
here i am... send me
now i walk different, yeah the fire in me
got a kingdom assignment, no retiring me
i ain’t backing down now, i done came too far
got scars that preach louder than who you are
if he can use me, he can use anybody
from the bottom of the pit to a spiritual body
this ain’t religion, this revival in motion
this that tear-in-your-eyes, holy spirit devotion
i ain’t afraid of the road, send me anywhere
to the broken, the lost, yeah i’ll meet ‘em there
if it costs everything, i already gave it
‘cause the cross showed me love... i could never repay it
here i am... send me
send me... send me...
through the fire, through the flood, still i believe
here i am... send me
if nobody else will go, lord i'll take the lead
i was lost in the dark, now i finally see
you called my name when i couldn't breathe
i ain't perfect but you chose me
here i am... send me
god... wherever you need me...
whoever you call me to...
no more running...
no more hiding...
use me.
even if it costs everything...
here i am... send me.
