This morning I picked up a paper
I read about tragedy I stopped and
I realized that it could've of been me
That could've been my mother
Or maybe even my big brother
But you kept them just like you kept me
I want to tell you that
Chorus
God has smiled on me (yeah)
He has set me free
God has smiled on
He has been good to me
Now I've been through some things that
I thought were unnecessary
Were way to much to carry
all by myself
Yeah! But you gave me strength to
make it through
I thought I couldn't take it
Feels so good to know that you care
Yeah, yeah, yeah, God
Chorus
So glad I know you
Glad you're my friend
Whenever I need you
You're always near
You don't have to be so good to me
But you keep on smiling
Chorus
