God's Been Good

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 cliché

There's no better way to tell you than to say

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 replay and I can see that I've cried some bitter tears

But I felt his arms around me as I faced my greatest fears

You see, I've had my gains than losses

And I've known more joy than hurt

As his grace rolled down upon me, undeserved

For 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

For 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 is

But the best that I can say it is this

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
