Why do the wicked men prosper
Why do I envy the proud
They scoff and they rage and defile Your name
Still riches and favor abound
Lord would You keep me from stumbling
Guard me from all of my doubt
My heart and my flesh though they fail me again
You are the strength that I've found
And as for me Your presence is my good
As for me Your presence is my good
You are my treasure my portion forever
As for me Your presence is my good
Faithful You are to remind me
Faithful to show me the truth
Finally I see You are all that I need
And all that I need is in You
And as for me Your presence is my good
As for me Your presence is my good
You are my treasure my portion forever
As for me Your presence is my good
Whom have I in heaven
Who else would I run to
There is no one I desire
Only You only You only You
Whom have I in heaven
Who else would I run to
There is no one I desire
Only You only You only You
Only You only You only You
And as for me Your presence is my good
As for me Your presence is my good
You are my treasure my portion forever
As for me Your presence is my good
And as for me Your presence is my good
As for me Your presence is my good
You are my treasure my portion forever
As for me Your presence is my good
As for me Your presence is my good
