Everything But Fail

(album: First Lady - 1977)

He can do everything but fail
When I was sick He made me well
Testify till the day I die
He can do everything but fail

I know a man who's a way maker
When it seems there is no other way
Who do you think wakes you up every morning
That you live to see a brand new day

Well my Mama introduced me to a man named Jesus
Said, Shirley I wanna tell you about this man
I don't care where you go always remember
He'll go with you to the end

He can do everything but fail
When I was sick He made me well
I'm gonna testify till the day I die
He can do everything but fail

We've been depending on man too long
Now it's time we turn around
So I turned my life to Jesus a long time ago, ooh yes, I did
Let me tell you about the joy I've found

He can save you like He'd save my soul
And rescue from all your sin
He'll take that ragged life of yours, yes He will
Start it over again

He can do everything but fail
When I was sick He made me well
I told the Lord, I'll testify till the day I die
God can do everything but fail

Now heart was feeling kind of heavy
Troubles was weighing on my mind
I was slowly drifting away
But I prayed instead of crying

Jesus came in a hurry, yes He did
It was so near my very end
It was then I could feel God moving on the inside
Then I remembered He was my dearest friend

God can do everything but fail
When I got sick He made me well
I'll testify till the day I die
He can do everything but fail

He can do everything but fail
When I was sick He made me well
I'll testify till the day I die
He can do everything but fail

He can do everything but fail
When I was sick He made me well
I gave God the word that I'll testify
He can do everything but fail
