Lyrics:

Chorus:
Oh, how good is the Lord,
Oh, how good is the Lord,
I never will forget what He has done for me.

He gives us salvation, how good is the Lord,
He gives us salvation, how good is the Lord,
He gives us salvation, how good is the Lord,
I never will forget what He has done for me.

He gives us His blessing .....

He gives us His Spirit ...

He gives us His healing ...

He gives us His glory ...

He gives us each other ...

He gives us His body ...

He gives us His freedom ....
