lyrics

Life is tough God is good
It’s a shame that we don’t trust in Him
The way we should
Life is tough suck it up
Mercy from the Maker’s meant to fill your cup
We love to filibuster, rail, & scoff
If we shut our mouths we might be better off
We’d begin to hear a still small voice
Lead us through these woods
Life is tough, sure enough but God is good
Sin is sweet for a while
But it’s like trying to make a pet out of a crocodile
Sin is sweet until it’s not,
You see the Venus flytrap has you caught
Hearts so hard that you can’t convince
‘Til we’re choking on our choices
And the consequence
It wouldn’t have to be that way if we understood
Life is tough, sure enough
But God is good
You hear the people say…
Life is tough God is good

All the people pray…
Life is tough God is good

You hear the people say…
Life is tough God is good
Life is short, truth to tell
And it’s not a dress rehearsal so live it well
Life is short don’t you blink
It isn’t going to work out the way you think
It’s a broken world with broken souls
We might not always be happy
But we can be whole
And Jesus hung on the cross
To make sure we could
Life is tough sure enough
But God is good
Then all the people say…
Life is tough God is good…
Life is tough but God is good
It’s a crime that we don’t trust
In Him the way we should
Life is tough so they say
And you never really live it ‘til you give it away
You can call me a fool meet me toe to toe
But I can’t deny this love I know
Not talking ‘bout Santa Claus or Robin Hood
Life is tough sure enough
But God is good
