David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

To see the whole picture,
It takes a while,
Many reasons why,
But finally a smile. 

Observing what you’re stuck in,
Whatever that may be,
One thing you know, you’re stuck within
a maze that’s hard to see. 


Chorus
Turning problems into nothing,
It seems a new idea,
But God helps those who help themselves,
He’ll help you to feel clear. 
It takes a while,
Prepare yourself for time,
A lot of it may pass you by,
There’s so much in your mind.

Bridge
Observing what you’re stuck in,
So often hard to do,
Persistence breaks down hidden things
that act like they are YOU.

Persistence breaks down hidden things
that act like they are YOU.

It takes a while to solve some things,
Get used to this, please do,
Estimating solving things
depends upon just YOU.
