This is the first collaborative work between Lenny and Elton (no, we are not related).
Lenny wrote the chorus and sent it on a tape via snail mail to Elton along with several
other unfinished songs. Elton wrote the verses and created the midi. Be sure and visit
New Jerusalem Music for more of Lenny's music. The RealAudio recording below was created
by our mutual friend, Steve Israel.
(Introduction)
God's so good, he hears our cry.
He knows our needs before we sigh.
He takes our load, and gives us hope
because he loves us so.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
It fills his heart with joy to treat his children well.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
Because a father loves his child.
When we pray both night and day,
he's always there to share our cares.
and give advice if we but ask
because he loves us so.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
It fills his heart with joy to treat his children well.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
Because a father loves his child.
Some sweet day he'll take us home.
We'll find rewards for what we've done,
and sing his praise through endless days
because he loves us so.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
It fills his heart with joy to treat his children well.
Let God be good to you. It's what he loves to do.
Because a father loves his child.
Because a father loves his child.
