soft hands and a crooked smile
He wasn't like all the oth
He was smart, he was working out
On how to get ahead in the race
So he schemed and he lied and he pried
His brother's blessing away
Trying to figure out the easier way,
But he's gonna learn a lesson,
Fast forward to a few years later
Up to the same old tricks
You gotta take what you can
All those years of scheming and stealing
I really know a way to win
And God that's catching up to him
Oh Jacob's trouble is he's
Trying to figure out the easier way, yeah
But he's gonna learn a lesson
In the dark, an angel came
He said, I know who you are,
time to face who you are and change
See, there is no easy street
You gotta work out your faith every day
And I will be there to help you
Jacob's trouble is just my trouble
The hardest thing is making a change
I'm gonna learn the lesson
