Song Lyrics

He saw the best in me
When everyone else around
Could only see the worst in me
I wish I had a witness tonight

Said He saw the best in me
When everyone else around me
Could only see the worst in me
Can I tell you one more time, one more time
I said He saw the best in me
When everyone else around me
Could only see the worst in me
I wish I had a witness tonight, all I need is one

He saw the best in me
When everyone else around me, yeah (when everyone else around me)
(Could only see the worst in me)
Does anybody have that testimony?
When folk walks you off
Said you would never make it
What did He see?

He saw the best in me
When everyone else around you, yeah (when everyone else around)
Could only see the worst in me (could only)
Can I tell you one more thing, I just need to tell you one more thing
Listen to this

See, He's mine, and I am his
It doesn't matter what I did
He only sees me for who I am
Does anybody know that tonight? Oh

See, He's mine, and I am his
Said it doesn't matter what I did
See, He only sees me for who I am
Help me sing it

Said he is mine (He is mine)
And He is, said it doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me for who I am (He only sees me for who I am)

Yes, yes, He is mine (He is mine)
I am his (I'm his)
It doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me (He only sees me for who I am)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh
I am his (I'm his)
It doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me for who I am (He only sees me for who I am)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I am so glad that He is mine
And I'm his
It doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me (He only sees me for who I am)
He only, He only sees me, yeah, one more time

He is mine (He is mine, I am his)
It doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me (He only sees me for who I am)

He saw the best in me
(When everyone else around)
(Could only see the worst in me)
I wish I had a witness tonight
But maybe somebody else testimony
Help me sing it, help me sing it

He saw the best in me
Everyone else around me (when everyone else around)
(Could only see the worst in me)

Can I ask y'all one question?
The question is simply this, what did He see?

(He saw the best)
I can't get no help up in here
Because there are some folk in here people wrote you off
Said you would never amount to anything
Said that you would never end up being anywhere
But Myron, tell 'em one more time, what did he see?
(He saw the best)

When mama said you would never be nothing
When aunties and uncles said you would never amount to anything
When daddy didn't come home anymore
He didn't look at you and said that you wasn't going to make it
God looked at you and what did He see, what did He see?

(He saw the best)
The best
The best
The best

(He saw the best, the best)
What did He see?
I said, what did he see?
I said, what did he see?
I said, what did he see?
I said, what did he see?
I said, what did he see?

(He saw the best in me)
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord

Can I sing the verse one more time, listen to this y'all
I love this, I love this

See, he's mine, and I'm his
It doesn't matter what I did
But he only sees me for who I am
Ooh Lord, yeah

He's mine and I'm his
It doesn't matter what I did
He only sees me for who I am

Sing it one time
He is mine, oh

(He's mine and I'm his)
(It doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me for who I am (He only sees me for who I am)

And the reason he sees me for who I am
Because he created me in his image and his likeness

He's mine (He's mine)
I am his (and I'm his)
It doesn't matter what I did (it doesn't matter what I did)
He only sees me ('cause He only sees me for who I am)

He saw the best (He saw the best)

See, He's mine, I am his
It doesn't matter what I did
He only sees me for who I am, wow
