Life is Good

(verse 1)
I once was threatened by a drunk man with a bad attitude
But I just walked away when I saw he was up to no good
I’ve worked hard to try and keep myself under control
And I’m not about to throw it all away to make myself look cool
‘Cause when you turn the other cheek, every fool might think you’re weak
But God looks down with pride and calls you strong

(chorus)
And life is good ‘cause God is great
Lord, I’m thankful for today
Help me to do the things I should
‘Cause when I do my heart can always say
That life is good

(verse 2)
I once was cheated by a dishonest landlord
But I just let it go, I didn’t take him to small claims court
‘Cause I believe it’s God who gives and God who takes away
And if he wanted me to have it, He’d pour it out from Heaven’s gates
Oh money can’t buy happiness, I consider myself very blessed
When the Maker of the World calls me his own

(repeat chorus)……….Oh yes it is
(bridge)
Oh and on the day I finally get to Heaven, I’ll be judged upon the way I’m living
And I pray that I will hear these words
Well done my child
And from my heart I’ll say
Life is good, so good
