Solo:
It's not because I've been so faithful
It's not because I've always don't what I was told
I blew it so many times but the Lord still blessed me that's why I can realize...
Choir:
It was no goodness of mine (No)
None my own
Solo:
Food in my cupboard
I got a roof over my head
I got clean water to drink
And a bed I can lay my head
It could've been me livin' out there in those streets
But the Lord didn't see fit to let any of these things be
Choir:
It was no goodness of mine
None my- where would I be if it not been for the Lord
No goodness on my own
Tenors: It, was no
Altos & Sopranos: No
Tenors: Goodness
Altos & Sopranos: Goodness
No goodness on my own
Thank you, Jesus
Thank you
Thank you Jesus
(Repeated for each individually: Sopranos, Altos, & Tenors)
