Have anybody every took the time out
To say Lord I thank you
Cause you’ve been good to me

When I don’t have no money in my pocket
I don’t let it bother me because
The Lord said He’ll work It out for me I know He will
Have anybody been lonely tonight
The Lord said He’ll become a keeper for you in a lonely hour
If you know He’s been good to ya
And you’re not ashamed
