The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir Goodness of the Lord song lyrics

Whenever I consider just where God brought me from

The life of emptiness I lived without God's son

My heart cries "hallelujah" cause the savior rescued me

Without his precious love where would I be?

I would be lost,

I would be drifting like a ship on stormy seas.

Without the sacrifice that Jesus life affords,

I would be dead within my sin

Forever longing to be free

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

Since the day he saved me, just look where I've come from

I'm now being made into the likeness of God's Son

I have this blessed assurance, cause the savior rescued me

Without his precious love where would I be?

I would be lost,

I would be drifting like a ship on stormy seas.

Without the sacrifice that Jesus life affords,

I would be dead within my sin

Forever longing to be free

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

BRIDGE

Jesus brought me out of darkness, into his marvelous light

and placed me on a solid rock to stay

I'm now walking with my savior and I'm fighting the "good fight"

Because of Jesus I can truly say...

I would be lost,

I would be drifting like a ship on stormy seas.

Without the sacrifice that Jesus life affords,

I would be dead within my sin

Forever longing to be free

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.

The goodness of the Lord,

The goodness of the Lord,

The goodness of the Lord,

He saved me, he raised me, he kept me

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord

He saved me, he raised me, he kept me

If it had not been for the goodness of

The Lord, The Lord, The Lord, The Lord

If it had not been for the goodness of the Lord.
