Blind Spot
by Deb Raab © 2005

Temptation was lurking in my blind spot
Before I knew it, I was caught
I never saw it comin', it was hiding in plain sight,
I was deceived, brought down without a fight.

So, I was caught
Caught in my blind spot
Not knowing it was there
Totally unaware

Of our blind spots we need to be aware
Because satan's attacks happen there
We have blind spots when driving a car
But, we adjust our mirrors to see far

Don't be caught
Caught in your blind spot
Not knowing it's there
Totally unaware

These mirrors are God given tools
The use of them, has no rules
Use them as God leads
According to your needs

So you won't be caught
Caught in your blind spot
Not knowing it was there
Totally unaware

Our relationship and in our time alone
With God, it will be shown
How to use and adjust
The mirrors He's given us

So don't be caught
Reveal that blind spot
Know it's there
Be totally aware

God will show us what we can't see
Follow His guidance to be free.
Widen your sight line, broaden your view
Hold tight to Jesus, He's holdin' tight to you.
