Sorry In Advance Lyrics

I'm trying to walk the narrow road, but I'm stumbling as I go

Preaching love and kindness, but my temper sometimes shows

I talk of compassion, but I don't help those in need

Most days my spirit's willing, but the flesh is weak

So before you get your hopes up, before you look too close

I've got a small confession, something you should know

I'm sorry in advance for what you're about to see

Cause most days the only one you can see is me

There's still a part of me that is blocking your view

I wanna be "All in" and He's making me new

When it's me you see instead of Jesus, well

I'm sorry in advance

I quote the scriptures readily, got verses in my head

But living out those holy words, well, that's where I see red

I know I'm called to witness, but fear keeps me at bay

The mission that He gave me, I dodge most every day

So before you get your hopes up, before you look too close

I've got a small confession, something you should know

I'm sorry in advance for what you're about to see

Cause most days the only one you can see is me

There's still a part of me that is blocking your view

I wanna be "All in" and He's making me new

When it's me you see instead of Jesus, well

I'm sorry in advance

I'm trying, Lord knows I'm trying

To put off the old man and become the new

The world is full of lies, but it's Jesus who speaks the truth

So don't put me on a pedestal, I'll only let you down

Christ is the one, don't lose hold of Him on my account

I'm sorry in advance for what you're about to see

Cause most days the only one you can see is me

There's still a part of me that is blocking your view

I wanna be "All in" and He's making me new

When it's me you see instead of Jesus, well

I'm sorry in advance

I'm sorry in advance that sometime you see

A person who's believing and praying to be

He's still working on me, setting me free

I'm sorry in advance

He's still working on me, setting me free

I'm sorry in advance
