For so many years, You've been good
And so many times, I've seen you work
I can't count the ways or all the days
That you've remained but I can say
You've been good for a long time
You've been good for a long time
You've been good for a long time
You've been good for a long time
You've been good for a long time
Faithful for a long time
Healing for a long time
Making ways for a long time
You've been good for a long time
You've been good for a long time
...
All my life you have been so
So good for long time
All my life you have been so
So good for long time
All my life you have been so
So good for long time
All my life you have been so
So good for long time
...
