God's Been Good Lyrics

LATELY I'VE BEEN LOOKING BACK, ALONG THIS WINDING ROAD

TO THE OLD FAMILIAR MARKERS OF THE MERCIES I HAVE KNOWN

I KNOW IT MAY SOUND SIMPLE BUT IT'S MORE THAN A CLICHE

no other words TO TELL YOU, THAN TO SAY

CHORUS

GOD'S BEEN GOOD IN MY LIFE

I FEEL BLESSED BEYOND MY WILDEST DREAMS 

WHEN I GO TO SLEEP EACH NIGHT

AND THOUGH I'VE HAD MY SHARE OF HARD TIMES, 

I WOULDN'T CHANGE THEM IF I COULD

'CAUSE THROUGH IT ALL, GOD'S BEEN GOOD

TIMES have passed AND I CAN SEE THAT I'VE CRIED SOME BITTER TEARS

BUT HIS ARMS were wide AROUND ME, AS I FACED MY darkest FEARS

YOU SEE I'VE HAD More GAINS THAN LOSSES AND I'VE KNOWN MORE JOY THAN HURT

AS HIS GRACE ROLLED DOWN UPON ME UNDESERVED

CHORUS

BRIDGE

GOD HAS BEEN MY FATHER, MY SAVIOR AND MY FRIEND

HIS LOVE WAS MY BEGINNING, AND HIS LOVE WILL BE MY END

I COULD SPEND FOREVER TRYING TO TELL YOU EVERYTHING HE said

BUT THE BEST way to say it today

CHORUS
