God Is Good
Ha ha!... Yeah...
God is good!
I get excited, man!
Yeah!
Ay yo, I remember when I wasn't stuttin' the Lord
And when I went to church, I would get nothin' but bored
If it's not a funeral or a wedding to peep
Yo, used to spend my Sunday mornings getting some sleep
I didn't believe in the bible, I was really stuck and bound
When the subject came up, I would argue up and down
God is real, how you know? I heard it, well, I heard it too
But don't believe it, it's in the bible,
How you know His Word is true?
He answers my prayers,
Well He ain't ever answered one of mine
I mean this argument was heated like the summertime
I quit talkin' and started thinkin', I was zonin' out
In the next room was a brother sleepin' on the couch
Passed out, should I believe him or think my homey is lyin'?
Oh God, if You're real, You gotta show me a sign
So what happened? That brother on the sofa
That was sleepin' and drunk
All of a sudden, he woke up, and started speakin' in tongues,
Ain't that somethin'...
Yo, God is good, yeah, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Man, you know that God is good, I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
Ha ha! God is good, yeah, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Yo, you know that God is good, I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
Yo, I thank God for wakin' me up this mornin',
Got me on my way
Well praise God, hold on, there is so much more I wanna say
Well thank Him, for His mercy, His grace,
Strength, His love and wealth
Him savin' me is a miracle in and of itself
He cleaned and turned me around, like an about face
It make me wanna shout, wait, I'm cleanin' out space
He keep me safe in the face of danger
Come on! And He erased all my rage and anger
Let's go! He taught me how to talk without the profanity
What else? And He prevented me from losin' my sanity
Come on! He gave me rest when I was racin' and stressin'
Oh yeah! And in His Presence, I be shakin' depression
What else? Me and the ex would have a fit, we was fussin'
And how did that make you feel?
Man, you gone get me to cussin'!
Now that's crazy! Naw, what's crazy was the numerous wars
But of course the Lord kept me
Even through the divorce, praise God!...
Yo, God is good, yeah, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Man, you know that God is good, man, I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
Ay yo, God is good, yeah, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Quit playin', you know that God is good, I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
Go back in time we get to 1996
You tell me how in the world without a dime we get
A house and two cars, that we never borrowed or stole
And to top it off, I even bought a whole wardrobe
Wow! And just before I put that all behind me, wait
Oh there's more? Yeah, check out my 1998
Unemployed for five months, naw, you lyin'! For real!
Did you make it? I didn't even get behind in a bill
Aw man! There's more, hope I ain't losin' anyone
Naw, keep goin', peep what happened in the new millennium
I had bad credit, now that can halt you too, huh?
By March, I wrecked two cars, and bought two new ones
In 2001, on the 7th of May
My little brother shot himself in the head, and I prayed
That he would make it, and he did,
See 'cause boldly we cried
To God for him, He restored him,
Though they told me he'd die, look out now!...
Ay yo, God is good, yeah, ay yo, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Man, you know that God is good, I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
I tell you, God is good, yeah, I know that is true
But come on and tell the people what He's done for you
Come on man, you know that God is good,
I know that He is terrific
So why don't you be specific, so the folk can get with it...
God is good!
The same, yesterday, today and forever!
Testify and chronicle the goodness of the Lord
In my life that dates back many years
Ay, God was good then
Huh, God continues to be good now
And I trust that God will always be good
Throughout the rest of my life and forever
You be encouraged... I declare... God is good!
God is good!
I get excited, man!
Yeah!
