Sho' Been Good

(album: I Love You - 2023)

Well, down through the years, if I don't know nothing else
I know my God has been good to me
Erica, come on over here and sing this song for your mama
Said I think I will, I will, I will, I will
Come on everybody, help me sing

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure good to me
Said you sure been good, said you sure been good
Said you sure been good to me

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Said you sure been good, said you sure been good
Said you sure been good to me

Well, I got good health and my family's fine
You woke me up just one more time
A brand new mercy every day
And Lord I wouldn't have it no other way
I said I don't deserve this loving grace
[?] kept me safe
From hurt and danger, seen, unseen
It was your blood that washed me clean

And I said, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, sure been good to me
Said you sure been good, said you sure been good
Said you sure been good to me

Can I get one witness in the building?
Let me tell you what it did for me
Well, I've got clothes on my back, shoes on my feet
A roof over my head, a pillow for my bed
God, you never left me and you always protect me
Gave your life for me and then you changed my story
Gave me strength and power in my weakest hour
Light up in my light, in my darkened night
Kept me from the grave, made old death behave
Thank you for my life, I'm so glad I'm saved
I'm so glad I'm saved, I'm so glad I'm saved

God is a good God (yes he is)
I said my God is a real good God (yes he is)
Hey, God is a good God (yes he is)
And He sure been good to me, yeah

Yeah, good, good, good
Sure been good to me
