Can't Get It Right

By Kim Bueltmann ©2008

Refrain:
G#7sus                    C#7
People say that I’ve got it all together.
G#7sus                             C#7
Sit back, but don’t relax until you know the facts, Jack.
G#7sus  C#7                             B                    F#
I ain’t got it all together, but I do rely on the One who does--
He holds me together.

I’m like Adam who stood there sayin’ nothing.
I’m like Eve who tried to shift the blame.
I’m like Abram who called his wife his sister.
I’m like Isaac who also did the same.
C#7sus                                             D#7
Whatever I do, no matter how hard I try, can’t get it right.

Refrain:
I’m like Moses who killed the Egyptian.

I’m like David who stole Uriah’s wife.
I’m like Noah who lay there drunk and naked.
I’m like anyone who ever swallowed Satan’s lies.
Whatever I do, no matter how hard I try, can’t get it right.

Refrain:

We share a lot in common with our Bible heroes.
We’re all sinners in need of some grace.
We were not chosen because of how we’ve lived our lives,
But simply because Jesus died in our place.
 

G#7sus                                                          C#7
Why do I do what I don’t want to do and why don’t I do what I want?
Why do I do what I don’t want to do and why don’t I do what I want?
Why do I do what I don’t want to do and why don’t I do what I want?
Why do I do what I don’t want to do and why don’t I do what I want?

  B                                    C#
Who will save me from myself?
             G#7sus                      D#7      G#m
Who will rescue me from this body of death?
 

   B               F#                              C#
Praise be to God who gives us the victory in Christ!
   B               F#                              C#
Praise be to God who gives us the victory in Christ!
   B               C#                            D#            G#
Praise be to God who gives us the victory in Christ!
