God Has Smiled On Me
The Gospel Keynotes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's more than a picture for paper
I read about tragedy
I stopped and I realized, that it could have been me
That could have been my mother or maybe even my big brother
But you kept 'em just like you kept me
I wanna tell you that
God has smiled on me he has set me free
Woah oh
God has smiled on me he's that good to meee
Now I've been through some things that I thought were unnecessary
Were way too much to carry all by myself
Yeahhh
You gave me strength to make it
Though I thought I couldn't take it
Feels so good to know that you care
Yeah yeah yeah
God has (smiled) smiled on me
Ohhh yes he has
He has set me free
Ohhhh
God has smiled on me
Yes he smiled on me
He's that good to me
(He's been so good so good)





Ahhhhh
So good he knew
