Righteousness!

God’s business is putting things right;
    he loves getting the lines straight,
Setting us straight. Once we’re standing tall,
    we can look him straight in the eye.
 
That is God's nature, setting things straight, having righteousness!  Protecting righteousness, guarding it, defining it! Righteousness is something that God owns and defines along, it is his business! Setting all of us straight, fixing us all of us up. That is how much he loves us, that he will always fixes us up regardless of how we were. He even sent His Son down to earth to fix all humanity once and for all, Jesus at His expense. That is God's business! All in the end so that we can look into God's eyes in heaven!

20-24 God made my life complete
    when I placed all the pieces before him.
When I got my act together,
    he gave me a fresh start.
Now I’m alert to God’s ways;
    I don’t take God for granted.
Every day I review the ways he works;
    I try not to miss a trick.
I feel put back together,
    and I’m watching my step.
God rewrote the text of my life
    when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.

As a follow up verses after that verse 7, God rewrote our lives when He sent Jesus down to earth to fix all of us. He rewrote everything! He fixes all our wrongs, when we were willing:"When I got my act together". It says when i got my act together. If we are willing, that is the key. When we are willing, thats the key. If we are not willing, it would not happen. It is as a prelude to the things that God will do, but we must get our act together first!
