Back to the Rock cover
05. God Pleaser
Album: Back to the Rock
Artist: Petra
         
 

So many voices
Telling me which way to go
So many choices
Come from those who think they know
There's a way that seems right to a man
But it only brings him death
I wanna go the way that leads to life
Till I draw my dying breath

Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to have the wisdom
To discern the two apart
Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to do the things
That please the Father's heart

Some make a sacrifice
And never let it show
Some make a point
Of letting everybody know
Some will live their lives
As unto men
And they have their reward
I just wanna do
Everything I do
With all my heart
Unto the Lord

Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to have the wisdom
To discern the two apart
Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to do the things
That please the Father's heart

I just want my life
To glorify His Son
To make my Father proud
That I'm His child
Before I'm done
No need to pat me on the back
Or stop the shake my hand
I just want to hear my Father say
"Well done, well done"
I just want to hear my Father say
"Well done"

Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to have the wisdom
To discern the two apart
Don't wanna be a man pleaser –
I wanna be a God pleaser
I just want to do the things
That please the Father's heart
