[Verse 1]
My daughter tries to draw a butterfly
With her crayons and crooked lines
And she s crying cause she just can t get it right
So I wrap her tiny hand in mine
To guide her with her heart s design
And she smiles as her dreams take flight
Perhaps that s how it is on this labyrinth road
I just need to let Him guide my soul
[Chorus]
God writes straight with crooked lines
He takes the mess we make in life
Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The wisdom of His love s design
God writes straight with crooked lines
[Verse 2]
I ve had days as dark as smoke
When it hurt too much to hope
And it felt like the pain would never end
Searching for answers but finding jokes
Limping along the winding road
Certain He left me all alone
When it s hard to trust that there s a greater plan
Like a child I ve got to just hold His hand
[Chorus 2]
God writes straight with crooked lines
He takes the mess we make in life
Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The wisdom of His love s design
God writes straight with crooked lines
[Bridge]
It s hard to see the picture
When we ve got our head to the ground
But the vision is perfect
From Heaven looking down
There s a reason for every detour
And every scar
His mercy has always been
Written in the stars
[Twinkle Twinkle Little Star tune here]
[Last Chorus]
God writes straight with crooked lines
He takes the mess we make in life
Turns our groaning into perfect rhyme
Hidden by the veil of time
The wisdom of His love s design
God writes straight with crooked lines
God writes straight with crooked lines
