crooked lines

My daughter tries to draw a butterfly
with her crayons and crooked lines
And shes cried cause she just cant get it right
So I wrapped her tiny hand in mine
to guide her with her hearts design
And she smiles as her dreams take flight
Perhaps this is how it is on this labyrinth road
I just need to let Him guide my soul
God writes straight with crooked lines
He takes the mess we make in life
He turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The Wisdom of His loves design
God writes straight with crooked lines
Ive had days as dark as smoke
When it hurt too much to hold
And it felt like,the pain would never end
Oh~searching for answers but finding jokes
Limping alone the winding road
Certain youve left me all alone
Whens it hard to trust that there is a greater plan
Like a child Ive gotta just hold His hand
Cause God writes straight with crooked lines
He takes the mess we make in life
]He turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The Wisdom of His loves design
God writes straight with crooked lines
Its hard to see the picture when weve got our head to the ground
but the vision is perfect from Heaven looking down
There is a reason for every detour and every scar
His mercy has always been hidden in the stars
His mercy has always been hidden in the stars
He takes the mess we make in life
He turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The Wisdomof His loves design
God writes straight with crooked lines
Oh~
God writes straight with crooked lines
[childs voice]Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
