[Intro]
Da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da
Let me see if you can say this with me
Da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da
Listen to this right here

[Verse 1]
Come fame or fortune or the battle portion
Lord, You are the source of everything I have
Mercy given, grace extended
A second chance at life that I never had
People love me from what You gave me
Wonderfully and fearfully, You made me
Marvelous are thou works in us
Thank You for the substance You instilled in me
If I could write a letter (Lord) no one could word it better
The words from my heart, usin' ink of love
If I could direct a movie I would tell the story
Of the favor that You've given to me

[Chorus]
Lord, You've been good (Good), good (You've been good), good (Oh Lord, You've been good)
Lord, You've been good, good (Oh, good), good (Lord, You've been better, better)
Lord, You've been better to me than anyone else
Better than I could be to myself
Lord, You've been good (Good), good (Good), good (Oh, oh)
[Verse 2]
Listen, from the planes I fly to the tears I cry
Lord, You are my peace from a hill on high
Joy and sorrow, hope for tomorrow
Lord, continue to lead and I will follow
The things You've done You did not have to do
Like makin' my enemies a foot stool
Come rain or shine (Ah, ah), You're on my mind (Ah, ah)
And for bein' there all the time (Lord, You've been)

[Chorus]
Lord, You've been good (Lord), good (I thank You for bein' so good), good (Every time I wake up in the mornin')
Lord, You've been good (Can't explain it), good (Oh, good), good
(When I think of Your goodness all I know is You've been)
Lord, You've been better to me than anyone else
Better than I could be to myself (When I don't have no regard for myself, oh, oh)
Lord, You've been good (Good), good (You've been real good), good
(Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good)

[Bridge]
Oh, taste and see (That the Lord is good) that the Lord is good
Oh, blessed is the man that thrusteth in Him and fears the Lord
And wants no more
God, I promise to keep my tongue from speakin' negativity
And seek peace all of my days
And keep from evil ways that I might not stray from You
[Outro]
Good (Good), Lord, You've been good (Good)
Lord, I thank You (Good) 'cause You didn't have to do it (Yes, You have)
But You did it anyway (Good), I thank You, Lord (Good)
For thinkin' about me (Good), You could've left me (Yes, You have)
I won't call my God (Good), You could've gave up on me (Good)
But You still been good (Good), You could've walked away (Yes, You have)
But You still been good (Good), You held me (Good)
You held me (Good), Yes, You have (Yes, You have)
You been on me (Good), I could believe in myself (Good)
Good and my money (Good), and in my hand (Good)
With my ways simply (Good), You revealed to me (Good)
It was Your good and mercy (Good) that was the key to my peace (Yes, You have)
Good (Good), good (Good)
God of my strength (Good), grace and glory (Good)
You said if I woke up right (Good)
You wouldn't keep any good thing away from me (Yes, You have)
