He Knows My Name by Francesca Battistelli


Knowing God's got my back. His mercy is a balm and a saving grace for all the real world trauma that comes at us each day. He is Peace in a chaotic world. A soft place to fall when things are going out of control.
We all have our stories... mine involves being an only child from a broken family. I also involves sexual abuse at an early age from a family friend and I also lost my father to cancer when I was only 12. There is strength in coming out of all of that... and at the time I hated God for taking my father, but eventually I realized it was not God, but the world that created these things and they were moments that made me who I am today.

I have come to terms with my past and I have also found peace in knowing God. Life is not easy, but with God it is less overwhelming.

Some lyrics:

I don't need my name in lights
I'm famous in my Father's eyes
Make no mistake
He knows my name
I'm not living for applause
I'm already so adored
It's all His stage
He knows my name oh, oh,
He knows my name oh, oh

I'm not meant to just stay quiet
I'm meant to be a lion
I'll roar beyond a song
With every moment that I've got
True to who You are
You saw my heart
and made
Something out of nothing
