I would be perfect, if it wasn't for the little ways I fall short every day of my life
I would be perfect, if it wasn't for the million things that I never can seem to get right
But I got this peace inside, cause I know that every time
I give you failures, and you give me grace
All of my problems don't push you away
And somehow you love somebody like me
Don't know how you do it, but you do it perfectly, you do it perfectly
Oh God, you're perfect, and you're never gonna break a promise
You're faithful beginning to end
And I don't deserve it, oh cause I got nothin' I can offer you, but you took me in and called me your friend
I give you failures, and you give me grace
All of my problems don't push you away
And somehow you love somebody like me
Don't know how you do it, but you do it perfectly, you do it perfectly, aye
Oh, perfectly known, perfectly made, because of the cross I am perfectly saved
I give you failures, and you give me grace
All of my problems don't push you away
And somehow you love somebody like me
Don't know how you do it, but you do it, oh, oh, oh
I give you failures, and you give me grace
All of my problems don't push you away
And somehow you love somebody like me
Don't know how you do it, but you do it perfectly
You do it perfectly, woah, oh, perfectly perfectly
God, you do it perfectly
