1 God is good to you and me,
Friend of mine, friend of mine;
Life is sweet and heav’n is bright,
Morning breaks with golden light,
Days end blissfully in night;
Friend of mine,
God is good to you and me.
2 God is good to you and me,
Friend of mine, friend of mine;
Naught of sadness comes to stay,
Night forgets itself in day,
Tears are quickly wip’d away;
Friend of mine,
God is good to you and me.
3 God is good to you and me,
Friend of mine, friend of mine;
Hope is bright in ev’ry heart,
Stripes can leave no lasting smart;
Soon we’ll meet, no more to part;
Friend of mine,
God is good to you and me.
