[Verse 1]
C
  My daughter tries to draw a 
butterfly
          G/B
With her crayons and crooked lines
            Am                 
And she's crying cause she just 
               F   G/B
can't get it right
      C
So I wrap her tiny hand in mine
    G/B
To guide her with her heart's design
          Am                     
And she smiles as her dreams take 
   Bb   C G
flight
               F/A              
Perhaps that's how it is on this 
  F          G  G/D  C
labyrinth road
         F               F/A     
I just need to let Him guide my 
G   G/B
soul

[Chorus]
C
God writes straight with crooked 
lines
    F                 C
He takes the mess we make in life
G/B Am          D5               
   Turns our groaning into 
  G   G/B
perfect rhyme
E7             Am
Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
Dm9            Fmaj7             
God writes straight with crooked 
    C    G  G/B  C
lines

[Verse 2]
C
I've had days as dark as smoke
         G/B
When it hurt too much to hope
         Am                    
And it felt like the pain would 
         F  G
never end
C
Searching for answers but finding 
jokes
G/B                  E7
Limping along the winding road
Am                       Bb  G/D 
Certain He left me all alone
 C  G

          F                    Dm7
When it's hard to trust that 
                 G   Am
there's a greater plan
        Bb                    F/A 
Like a child I've got to just hold
       G
 His hand

[Chorus 2]
C
God writes straight with crooked 
lines
    F                 C
He takes the mess we make in life
G/B Am          D5               
   Turns our groaning into 
  G   G/B
perfect rhyme
E7             Am
Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
Dm9            Fmaj7             
God writes straight with crooked 
    C    Csus4   C
lines

[Bridge]
      G       F        Dm7
It's hard to see the picture
                    G         
When we've got our head to the 
  C/E  G/D  C
ground
          Bb         C
But the vision is perfect
       F       G     C G/B
From Heaven looking down
Em7     G   F               Em/B
There's a reason for every detour
    Em/G     A7 A
And every scar
     Dm          G     F
His mercy has always been
D/F#            G
Written in the stars

[Twinkle Twinkle Little Star tune

   Turns our groaning into 
  G   G/B

Hidden by the veil of time
     F             C
The wisdom of His love's design
