Video+Lyrics: Better For It – Riley Clemmons

I wouldn’t say I would’ve chosen it
That time I hit the bottom and it hurt a little bit
Funny how being down can make you look up
But now I’m better for it

All I could see in the moment was
My heart and how it felt ripped open, I’ll admit
I found You down low in the brokenness
And now I’m better for it

I count it all as joy even when I’m in the flame
‘Cause I know You always

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
Gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there’s a real good reason
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
Better for it

Yeah, I used to think pain was a consequence
But now I kinda think it might be the perfect gift
You use to get me straight to You
And I’m better for it

I count it all as joy even when I’m in the flame
‘Cause I know You always

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
Gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there’s a real good reason
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
Better for it

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I’m better for it

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I’m better for it

I’m better ’cause I’ll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me
I’m better ’cause I’ll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me

Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there’s a real good reason
You let me be where I’ve been
So I can be all that I am
Better for it

Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I’m better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I’m better for it
