that's the way god planned it

Lyrics

why can't we be humble, like the good lord say?, he promised to exalt us, but love is the way, how men be so greedy, when there's so much left?, all things are god-given, and they all have been blessed, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, let not your heart be troubled, let mourning, sobbing cease, learn to help one another, and live in perfect peace, if we'd just be humble, like the good lord say, yeah, he promised to exalt us, but love is the way, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, you better believe me, i hope you get this message, where you won't, others will, you don't understand me, but i'll love you still, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the way god wants it to be, you better believe me, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be, that's the way god planned it, that's the way god wants it to be
