Mysterious Ways
It's Sunday morning
So make a joyful noise
Unto the Lord
When the king threw Daniel in the lion's den
(The good Lord works in mysterious ways)
God sent a mighty angel, brought him out again
(The good Lord works in mysterious ways)
When God saw the wicked, He new what to do
Said, Noah, bring the animals two by two
'Cause I'm gonna keep your boat afloat for 40 days
Yeah, yeah (The good Lord works in mysterious ways)
Yes, He works, oh, He works (My Lord, He works)
The good Lord works in mysterious ways
Oh, oh, the good Lord work (My Lord, He works)
Don't waste your time tryin' to wrassle with your worldly woe
(The good Lord works in mysterious ways) Woo!
'Cause God watchin' over you wherever you go, yeah
(The good Lord works in mysterious ways)
If your poor back breakin' under all that weight
Saint Peter's gonna lift it at the pearly gate
Let the spirit walk beside you on your darkest days
(The good Lord works in mysterious ways) Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yes, He works (My Lord, He works) oh, He works
The good Lord works in mysterious ways
Yes, He works (My Lord, He works) oh, He works
The good Lord works in mysterious ways
Ooh, ooh, ooh (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Aah (aah)

Yes, my God still works
(My God) still works in mysterious way-ay-ay
None of us knows what the Lord's got planned for us, no, sir
So stop your moanin', quit your groanin'
Throw away your handkerchief, and put your hand in His
And follow where He leads
The good Lord is walkin' with ya (walkin' with ya)
The good Lord is talkin' with ya (talkin' with ya)
(The Lord is singin' with ya)
Yeah, He's shoutin' with ya (shoutin' with ya)
