07. Repentance

Progress Isn't A Straight Line
by Luke Knodel

       
Lyrics:

[Pre-Chorus]
Lord I’m so tired of running from you
Help me turn around and run right to you
Living life without you never would do
Grace for my mistakes yeah that’s the good news
I know you’re always there for me
Even when I’m not there for you
It don’t make sense to me
Why you do what you do

[Chorus]
So Lord I repent
Forgive me my sin
Please heal me again
Only you can
All of my plans
All that I am
I’m laying it down
Inside your hands

[Verse 1]
But I’m so focused on the here and now
The fear and doubt I’m weary now it’s not going away
Eternal things don’t fit in the frame
Of my mind because I find I’m so stuck on today
Who do I praise? Who is my God? Where am I fixing my gaze?
Is it on grades and a great GPA?
Or is it up on Christ in his heavenly place?
I say I’ll never give up the faith, but I’ve been drifting away
Jesus got spit in the face, so I won’t sink in the flames
Amazing infinite grace, craving and getting a taste
God you guide me, you’re right beside me
I wanna see your face and your glory shining brightly
I praise your name you are wise and mighty
I could never leave you it’d be too pricey
You’re worth more than this world could offer, you’re giving living water
I hear you calling father, I’m bowing by the altar

[Pre-Chorus]
Lord I’m so tired of running from you
Help me turn around and run right to you
Living life without you never would do
Grace for my mistakes yeah that’s the good news
I know you’re always there for me
Even when I’m not there for you
It don’t make sense to me
Why you do what you do

[Chorus]
So Lord I repent
Forgive me my sin
Please heal me again
Only you can
All of my plans
All that I am
I’m laying it down
Inside your hands

[Verse 2]
It’s hard to look at life and assign my priorities
I should guard my eyes because I desire purity
Do I really view your word as my authority?
Over my life so that I should live morally
What matters? What really matters?
Does the way I’m living make a difference in this tiny little chapter of time?
I’m still stuck inside these patterns of mine
I’m needing that word divine, Lord I repent of my crimes
Now I’m thinking man what is my goal?
My goal is to seek your face Lord no you’re not letting go
I’m casting out my net always fishing for souls
And as a man I gotta plan to keep my family close
When it comes to stepping up you know I won’t be a ghost
Yeah I know I’m messing up but you still love me the most
You always satisfy me it’s in you that I boast
You hold me when I cry so Lord I bow at your throne

[Pre-Chorus]
Lord I’m so tired of running from you
Help me turn around and run right to you
Living life without you never would do
Grace for my mistakes yeah that’s the good news
I know you’re always there for me
Even when I’m not there for you
It don’t make sense to me
Why you do what you do

[Chorus]
So Lord I repent
Forgive me my sin
Please heal me again
Only you can
All of my plans
All that I am
I’m laying it down
Inside your hands
