For My Good
by Dottie Peoples

Album: On Time God

Verse 1:
I've had trials and tribulations,
unexpected situations, living here below.
I've had friends to turn their backs on me
and leave me stand in the cold.
I've been hurt in church
As I attempted to do God's work;
by people who called themselves saints.
Many times I felt like giving up,
but the Spirit said you can't.
You know the Lord, He puts you through
a lot of things you can't understand,
and for everything He allows there's a reason.
So in my life the devil gets no glory,
everywhere I go I tell the story;
how God has a way of turning people around.


Chorus:
He meant it for my good,
God meant it for my good.
He brought me out without a doubt,
I knew that he would.
Now I know no defeat,
I'm strong when I'm weak;
God gave me a song now I must sing on.
The devil meant it for bad but I'm so glad
God meant it for my good.

Verse 2:
The gossip, the lies, the tears in my eyes
it worked out for my good.
I past the test of time,
like a tree by the water I stood.
Because through it all,
God gets the glory,
everywhere I go I tell the story;
How God worked out things for me.
The devil meant it for bad but I'm so glad
God meant it for my good.
