Lyrics
Verse:
Like everyone else I tried to fly through my life
Using only my feelings and instincts
By trial and error from the day I was born
I'd always heard that was the way it was done
Repeat chords to Verse:
So, I took the throttle and I made my own course
I headed out somewhere that way
But I hit some heavy weather and crashed and burned
Now listen to the lesson that I had to learn
Chorus:
If you're not living by the Word of God
You're flying by the seat of your pants
If you're not living in Jesus I wouldn't give you a snowball's chance
Your automatic pilot isn't doing too well
There's been a major malfunction and you're headed for hell
If you're not living by the Word of God you're flying by the seat of your pants
Repeat chords to Verse:
Now life may bring me some spins and some dives
And zero visibility too
But by His direction and by His word
I know I can make it through
With his Spirit as co-pilot here inside
Using His flight manual for my guide
I'll make a three point landing on the other side
And brother He'll do the same for you
Chorus:
But if you're not living by the Word of God
You're flying by the seat of your pants
If you're not living in Jesus I wouldn't give you a snowball's chance
Your automatic pilot isn't doing too well
There's been a major malfunction and you're headed for hell
You'd better stop flyin' by the seat of your pants and start livin' by the Word of God
Start livin' by the Word, livin' by the Word, livin' by the Word of God
