Verse 1

Yeah I like it easy
But that’s not how it’s been
I’m at that part
Of the movie when
The good guy might not win
Did I take a wrong turn
Why do You have me here
I want that happy ending
Not this one where I’m in tears

Pre Chorus

Yeah we both know

Chorus

If it was up to me
There’d be no gravel roads
No wounds no blisters on my soul
Pain might come
But it wouldn’t come for me
If it was up to me
I’d take the easy ride
But I’d miss the grace
That changed my life
Thank God I’m not the one
In charge of thing

Post Chorus

I’d never know
How good Your plans could be
If it was up to me

Verse 2

If it was up to me
I’d never taste the grace
That meets me where I am
Or meet the God who came
And picked me up
And taught me how to stand
He always has a purpose
Through the joy and suffering
I’d be crazy not to trust Him
With everything

Chorus

If it was up to me
There’d be no gravel roads
No wounds no blisters on my soul
Pain might come
But it wouldn’t come for me
If it was up to me
I’d take the easy ride
But I’d miss the grace
That changed my life
Thank God I’m not the one
In charge of thing

Post Chorus

I’d never know
How good Your plans could be

Refrain

If it was up to me
If it was up to me

Bridge

Your ways are higher
Your ways are higher
You know what
You’re doing with me
Your ways are higher
Your ways are higher
Put me where
You want me to be

Pre Chorus

Yeah we both know

Chorus

If it was up to me
There’d be no gravel roads
No wounds no blisters on my soul
Pain might come
But it wouldn’t come for me
If it was up to me
I’d take the easy ride
But I’d miss the grace
That changed my life
Thank God I’m not the one
In charge of thing

Post Chorus

I’d never know
How good Your plans could be
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
