[Verse 1:]
|
Perfect, I know that you're perfect.
|
It seems that you just can't do nothing wrong.
|
I guess that's how you were raised all along.
|
But honey, I'm human.
|
Excuse me, I'm human.
|
You have no idea just what I go through.
|
Daily I'm crying.
|
Lord, what now to do?
|
And I sure do need you.
|
And that's when he holds me.
|
Yeah, he wraps me in his loving arms.
|
Keeping me safe from all harm.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I may not dot every "i".
|
Or even cross every "t".
|
And I guess that you have arrive.
|
But the Master's still working on me.
|
And until I'm in my grave both hands will I raise.
|
Signifying I still, Oh I Still have a praise.
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Sometimes I get so tired.
|
Not even at everyone else.
|
Sometimes I'm just sick of myself.
|
Yes, I am.
|
But what keeps me inspired is the fact that I know that he's there.
|
Though I change he ain't going nowhere.
|
And I know that he cares.
|
So why should I worry what you have to say about me?
|
When he gave me liberty.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I may not dot every "i".
|
Or even cross every "t".
|
And I guess that you have arrive.
|
But the Master's still working on me.
|
And until I'm in my grave both hands will I raise.
|
Signifying I still, Oh I still have my praise.
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
When you look at me things ain't what it seems.
|
God's got a hold on me.
|
I've been down on luck.
|
There and back again.
|
Yeah, he still cares.
|
Praise and mercy.
|
Carry to his name.
|
I'm gonna raise my hand with no intent to care what you say about me.
|
I don't care what you say about me.
|
I may not...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Dot every "i". (Dot every "i")
|
Or even cross every "t". (Or even cross every "t")
|
And I guess you have arrive. (I guess you)
|
But the Master's still working on me. (Yes he is)
|
And until I'm in my grave both hands will I raise. (Until I'm in my grave)
|
Signifying I still, Oh I still have my praise. (Oh, still have a praise)
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I may not dot every "i". (Every "i")
|
Or even cross every "t".
|
And I guess that you have arrive. (He's working on my body)
|
But the Master's still working on me. (Working on my mind)
|
And until I'm in my grave both hands will I raise. (Until I'm in my grave)
|
Signifying I still, Oh I still...
|
I still gotta praise.
