I’ve got a question at the back of my mind
Tell me really, is the Lord good?
I’ve got a question, troubling my heart
Tell me really, is the Lord good?
I have seen trouble, I have been through pain
Been steeped in sorrow, covered in disdain
I’ve got a question, troubling my heart
Tell me really, is the Lord good?
I heard a voice say Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
He’s not just good, He’s very good
I heard a voice say Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
He’s not just good, He’s very good
When I sit in sunlight, but I cannot see
When I am quiet, but I cannot hear
Life hands me lemons, that I cannot squeeze
In all this really, is the Lord good?
I’ve cried and called out, I have wailed and mourned
Done all I know to, to make things right
Despite my efforts, and all I have tried
When it’s all over, it comes tumbling down!
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
And I make my bed in the depths of hell
If my soul you choose today to slay
Lord you’re good!
