[Verse 1]
Quiet now, I hear Your voice
You're beckoning my jaded heart
"Let down your walls and come away with me"
You have seen the worst of me
My love of sin, my jealousy
Yet somehow Your affection stays unchanged
[Chorus]
Nothing hidden in this place
I'll take this mask off, show my face
No pretending, this is me
You see the scars and love me, though I'm weak
[Verse 2]
Help me look beyond the lies
And see myself through Heaven's eyes
To understand my strength is found in You
[Chorus]
Nothing hidden in this place
I'll take this mask off, show my face
No pretending, this is me
You see the scars and love me, though I'm weak
[Bridge]
I am loved, You embrace me as I am
I am loved, You welcome me in
I am loved, You embrace me as I am
I am loved, You welcome me in
[Chorus 2]
Nothing hidden in this place
I'll take this mask off, show my face
No pretending, this is me
You see the scars and love me
Nothing hidden in this place
I'll take this mask off, show my face
No pretending, this is me
You see the scars and love me, though I'm weak
Masks was written by Tim Hughes & Josh Gauton & Tom Read.
Masks was produced by Tom Read & Henry Marsden.
This is one of my favourite songs to play live. I love the rawness of the lyrics and the cry of the bridge.
