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, youâre perfect, and youâre nevĐ”r gonna break a promise
Youâre faithful bĐ”ginning to end
And I donât 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
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, youâre perfect, and youâre nevĐ”r gonna break a promise
Youâre faithful bĐ”ginning to end
And I donât 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
💡 Song Meaning & Background
"Perfectly" by Micah Tyler is a contemporary Christian worship song that explores the theme of human inadequacy contrasted with divine grace, assuring listeners that they are completely loved and accepted by God despite their flaws. Rooted in biblical concepts of unconditional love and adoptionâsuch as Romans 5:8, which states that God demonstrates His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for usâthe song encourages believers to release the pressure of self-perfection and instead rest in the finished work of Jesus.
