Getting Closer Lyrics

Wish I could make everybody happy
But so far it hasn't worked that way
Everybody has expectations
Oh yeah, o-o-oh yeahIf your looking' for picture perfect
I'm a girl who's gonna let you down
Everybody has expectations
Oh yeah, o-o-oh yeahI'll be the one, the first to admit
That my life's under construction, yeahI know I'm God's invention
He knows I need attention
Getting closer, closer everyday
Even with misconception
God knows my intention
Getting closer more like Him each dayGod's not, God's not
God's not through with me yet, yet
Through with me yetEveryday that I live I'm burning
How your mercy can make me free
From all of my expectations
Oh yeah, o-o-oh yeahI'll be the one, the first to admit

That my life's under construction, oh yeahI know I'm God's invention
He knows I need attention
Getting closer, closer everyday, oh yeah
Even with misconception
God knows my intention
Getting closer more like Him each dayGod's not, God's not
God's not through with me yet, yet
YeahEven though I may try to become
What you want me to be
When I am less, He is more
He is faithful completely
Complete meEven though I may try to become
What you want me to be, yeah
When I am less, He is more
He is faithful completely
Complete meI know I'm God's invention
He knows I need attention
Getting closer, closer everyday
Getting closer everyday
Even with misconceptions
God knows my intentions
Getting closer more like Him each dayGod's not, God's not
God's not through with me yet, yet
God's not through with me
God's not, God's not
God's not through with me yet, yet
God's not through with meGod's not through with me
