There is just one thing I've got to pass along Cause I know that it will help you In the journey you are on See, I've learned from disappointment And in all my broken dreams That God in all His mercy Is looking out for me [Pre:] Cause in the heart of a man He makes his plans But the Lord directs his steps [Chorus:] When life doesn't go the way I thought it should Sometimes it's because, God is good And when plans fall apart though I never dreamed they would Sometimes it's because, God is good [Verse 3:] It's a sure thing I will stand and state my claim That all things work together For my good in Jesus name Through every disappointment And in all my broken dreams God in all His mercy Is looking out for me Pre: Chorus: When life doesn't go the way I thought it should Sometimes it's because, God is good And when plans fall apart though I never dreamed they would Sometimes it's because, God is good Bridge: I've been desperate (Cause God is Good) I've been broken (Cause God is Good) And I've been humble (Cause God is Good) But never forsaken (Cause God is Good) I stand on the mountain (Cause God is Good) Restored and forgiven (Cause God is Good) And I'm changed forever (Cause God is Good) Cause God is good, always good Chorus: When life doesn't go the way I thought it should Sometimes it's because, God is good And when plans fall apart though I never dreamed they would Sometimes it's because, God is good Out: Thank you Father, your ways are higher And you are always good
