Kurt Carr's song 'Been So Good' is a gospel praise anthem expressing overwhelming gratitude for God's faithfulness. The lyrics repeatedly declare that God has been so good that the singer cannot fully express it. The song acknowledges trials, such as people trying to discourage, but affirms that God gives victory. It emphasizes joy in remembering what God has done and culminates in a call to praise. The simple, repetitive structure makes it suitable for congregational worship, focusing on thanksgiving and testimony of God's goodness.

[Verse 1:]
He's been so good, I just can't tell it all
He's been so good to me, I just can't tell it all
He's done so much for me, I just can't tell it all, Oh
Been so good, done so much I can't tell it all

He's been so good
He's been so good
I just gotta praise Him
Praise the Lord
Prasie Him
Praise the Lord

He's been so good
I just gotta praise Him

(What He's done for me)
I get joy when I think about

I get joy when I think about
(What He's done, what He's done for me)

Been good to me
Really been, really been good to me
