For My Good Songtext
von Maverick City Music

I used to damn those desert valleys
But now I thank You for those droughts
I used to curse the walls around me
But now I see You had it figured out

And it was all working for my good
If only I knew back then what I know right now, oh
Nothing is wasted in Your hands
God, You didn′t forsake me
And I know You never will, oh

There is beauty in the ashes
There's a peace within the storm
And there′s a song for every season
So don't stop singing
On and on, until you see the sun

'Cause it was all working for my good (I see it now)
If only I knew back then what I know right now
Nothing is wasted in Your hands
God, You didn′t forsake
And I know You never will


Oh, ooh-oh-oh
I know You never will
You′ll never leave me, You'll never leave
And I trust You, even when I don′t see You, I still trust You
When I don't understand, I′ll still lift my hands and worship in the middle of it, oh

When I should've lost my mind
You showed up right on time
And carried me through the valley
All the way on the other side

And when pain tried to take my joy
That′s when I felt You more
Now I've got to testify

God, You kept my heart alive
I didn't know if I′d survived
I gave up so many times
But You kept my heart alive

When love ones came to die
You never left my side
And You kept my heart alive

Yes You did, yes You did, yes You did
I′ll praise You in the day
And I'll praise You through the night
′Cause You kept my heart alive


Yes You did, yes You did, yes You did
I'm alive, I′m alive
I'm alive, I′m alive
(Yes You kept my heart) You kept my heart alive

Nobody else can do it
Nobody else can do it (You kept my heart alive)
Nobody else can do it
Nobody else can do it (You kept my heart alive, yeah)

Nobody else can do it
Nobody else can do it (I'm grateful, You kept me)
Nobody else can do it (with nobody else)
Nobody else can do it (when I thought I was alone, You kept me)

Nobody else can do it (when I thought I wouldn't make it)
Nobody else can do it (when I thought I wouldn′t make it, You kept me)
Nobody else can do it (You kept me)
Nobody else can do it

When I thought it was over
You never left me in the valley
Oh-oh-oh-oh

It was all working for my good
If only I knew back then what I know right now
Nothing is wasted in Your hands
God, You didn′t forsake me
And I know You never will (You didn't forsake me)
God, You didn′t forsake me
And I know You never will (come on lift those hands, let's declare this)

You never will, You never will (I need you to make that confession)
You never will, You never will (when the enemy starts talking to you, declare)
You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will

You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will
You never will, You never will

And it was all working for my good
If only I knew back then what I know right now
And nothing is wasted in Your hands
God, You didn′t forsake
And I know You never will

God, You didn't forsake
And I know You never will
God, You didn′t forsake
And I know You never will

God, You didn't forsake
And I know You never will
God, You didn't forsake
And I know You never will

God, You didn′t forsake me
And I know You never will
God, You didn′t forsake
And I know You never will

God, You didn't forsake
And I know You never will
