Brandon Holt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

God is so good
God is so good
God is so good
He's so good to me

You can spend your whole life building
Something from nothing
And one storm can come
And blow it all away
Build it anyway

You can chase a dream that seems
So out of reach
And you know it might not ever
Come your way
Dream it anyway

God is great, but sometimes life ain't good
When I pray it doesn't always turn out like I think it should
I do it anyway

This world has gone crazy
And it's hard to believe
But tomorrow we'll be better
Than today
Believe it anyway

And you can love someone with all your heart
For all the right reasons
And in a moment they can choose to walk away
Love them anyway

For God is great
But sometimes life ain't good
And when I pray it doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway

You can pour your soul out singing
A song you believe in
And tomorrow they'll forget you ever sang
Sing it anyway
Sing it anyway

I sing, I dream, I love, I love anyway
I sing, I dream, I love, I love anyway




I do it anyway
I do it anyway
