Progress Isn't A Straight Line
by Luke Knodel

       
Lyrics:

[Chorus]
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter

[Verse 1]
I’ve been drifting lately, faith’s been getting lazy
Wish I would pray, open his word on the daily, but I keep turning away
Lord I need your grace I don’t need my works, I know you made
Me from the dirt, I need to see change before I return but what is the way?
Is it straight and narrow? Yes I sin like a wayward arrow
I face the grave though I’m afraid of peril, am I a fake in my field like a paper scarecrow?
Who’s really good? Man it’s just God, turns out that he’s everything that I’m not
That makes him everything that I want, he paid for my faults man it’s all bought

[Chorus]
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter

[Verse 2]
Lord I need you, help me now
I wanna seek truth but my heart’s so foul I
Really wanna change it up, show myself I ain’t afraid to love
But then I feel a painful tug of past memories scathing us man I hate to trust
Still wanna change who I am, I don’t act like a man and I got all these plans
To stop acting childish, why did I fail them again? I’m racking up all of this mileage
Piling it up til I stop cause I ran out of gas, getting love? No I’m not cause it’s back in the past
Skipping trust but I’m lost help me back to the path, giving up by the cross when it slid off my back and

[Chorus]
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter

[Verse 3]
Look son, I want you back, when you’re off the track I still love you when you fall into traps
I gave you life you should get on the path, I provided
A righteous life is in my word you should look inside it, and when you’re getting tempted I know you’re divided
If you’re sick and you’re tired of regrets then choose what’s right, you should try it
Without my grace you would be lifeless, taste and see I’m so good it’s priceless
Remain in me and I’ll remain in you, that’s the only way that you’ll be bearing fruit
It’s very true, like my son that I sent to be saving you, I made you new
Now take the news of amazing truth and tell it to the people who are drifting too

[Chorus]
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter
God you are wonderful, now that my cup is full, I can’t see and I forget ya
Do I really wanna be with ya? I’m feeling like a bit of a drifter
