Petra - Godpleaser lyrics

rate me

Words and music by Bob Hartman

Based on Proverbs 14:12, Ephesians 6:6, Galatians 1:10, 1 Thessalonians 4:1, Matthew 6:2, 25:23, Colossians 3:23

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

(Chorus)

Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser

I just want to have the wisdom to discern the two apart

Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser

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

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"
