The Lord Is So Good

(album: Choose Life - 1985)

Merciful and gracious
So slow to anger
In pity plenteous
Oh, the Lord is so good

He'll not always chide us
Nor let His anger or wrath
Abide upon us
No, the Lord is too good

He is not rewarding me
According to my iniquity
Nor treating me after my sin
No, I'll enter in

To His throne room with boldness
When I've a hunger
For His forgiveness
For the Lord is my good

He is not rewarding me
According to my iniquity
But if I happen to sin
He'll bid me to come in

To His own room with kindness
For my intercessor
Is the gentle Jesus
Who delivers us for our good

So sing hallelujah
To the Lord
The Lord is so good
