My God
My God, the one who keeps me straight
He protects me, he listens to me
With him I will not be afraid.
He teaches lessons for me to learn
Harsh or saddening
So when my time comes I won't burn.
He keeps me from the way of evil
Away of all the hate and anger
One day I will be able soar like an eagle.
God is good, God is good
Since he is here I would never brood
My God, thank you is really all I can say
Because I know without you I would not be here today.
