Ways To Go Part 2

We got a ways to go things being the way that they are
But it's better that you know and can see just how far
Many aren't as aware with the rest not having a clue
But let's be fair, giving all the credit to Whom it's due

Remember, only One was perfect and you need only follow
Don't be one to neglect, so sad all those lives ringing hollow
For praise is most certainly good being so incapable of more
For here never having understood, being so much glory in store

We're just not there yet, but how far we've come as of today 
It's in the goals that you set when then walking in His Way
And then you take time to praise again for just praise is due
Not characteristic of most men and of many women also true

So I know I'm not perfect but I know I'm on the right road
It's the others I can't neglect and I almost feel that it's owed
So if you could give me a little hand in the spreading of His Word
Then even more would understand their vision no longer blurred
