Story I Tell Lyrics

I was the harlot sitting down by the well
I was the lepor, who was told not to tell
And I was so paralyzed, I never had moved
Until 4 of my friends, who wouldn't give in, went and busted up a roof
I was the widow, who gave up my last dime
I was the blind man with mud in his eyes
I was the woman known by too many men

But as I cover my face
He uncovered His Grace
As I heard stones hit the sand

OH, Nobody knew the troubles I've seen
Nobody knew my shame
Nobody knew the places I've been
I didn't know how to change
But He saw a Hope that I did not see, He saw a better way
And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell,
Is that you don't even know my name

I was the prodigal
Once lost but now found
And I was made sane the day
The swine were all drowned
And I was the thief that was hung up to die
But the Son of Man looked at my cross I was bearing and decided to give me life!

Nobody knows the troubles I've seen
Nobody knew my shame
Nobody knew the places I've been
I didn't know how to change
But He saw a Hope that I did not see, He saw a better way
And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell, Is that you don't even know my name

I am the homeless wandering around on your streets
I live across the world with nothing to eat
I'm locked in a prison with a chain on my dreams
When you see me everyday and you look the other way...
It's like a slap across my cheek

Nobody knows the troubles I've seen
Nobody knew my shame
Nobody knew the places I've been
I didn't know how to change
But He saw a Hope that I did not see, He saw a better way
And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell, Is that you don't even know my name

Micah Tyler is a singer/songwriter and Texas native. Micah's true passion is to tell good stories and love people well. Having served in youth ministry for almost a decade, Micah has a true love and respect for the local church but also wants to make Gospel-centered music that has a style to attract the unchurched as well. Tyler has developed a style all his own which he is calling "Southern Soul." Birthed from the the grooves and melodic influences of his childhood idols (Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, etc.) and mixed with the swamps and deep woods of southeast TX, Micah's music is growing a fan base of young and old alike.

He released his first solo record, "The Story I Tell" in October of 2013 and it debuted at #3 on the iTunes Christian/Gospel charts and #93 on the overall iTunes charts. It also reached #2 on Billboard Magazine's Heatseeker Chart for the SouthCentral United States region (Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico) for all genres released that week. He recently released a fun, new project titled "The Kitchen Sink EP" on October 7th, 2014 and it climbed all the way to #2 on the iTunes Christian/Gospel Charts. Tyler describes it as "the kind of record you listen to with your 'steel-toe dancing shoes on'" because it will both lyrically challenge your heart but also make you want to get up and bust a move.

Micah travels over 200 days a year to play/lead at churches, concert venues, camps, retreats, coffee shops, and platforms all over TX. Micah has shared the stage with National touring acts like Building 429, Leeland, Phillips, Craig, & Dean, Sanctus Real, Unspoken, Matt Baird of the band Spoken, Jimmy Needham, The After's, Sidewalk Prophets, and Phil Wickham. This December, Micah will be heading out on a 2014 Christmas Tour with Shane & Shane and Phil Wickham, bringing his swampy, Gospel style to new audiences in Washington DC, Texas, and California.
