Long Time - So

Long Time - So Lyrics

[Intro]
The GP will see you now

[Chorus]
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it’s been my whole life
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it's been my whole life, we say

[Post-Chorus]
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won’t let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won't let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time

[Verse 1]
It goes, God loved me from a long time (Long time)
Had to tell myself 'cause it's war time (War time)
Battle in my mind and I won't climb
Out of the pattern that I find and I won't shine
How to quick to forget, then I’m easily stressed
That will lead to depression, I’m meager and vexxed
Got the bread full of life, but I'm eating it less
How I handle the night? What I read in the text
He told me He would never let me go, that be the fact
Now for my restless soul, I needed that
Not just a stepping stone to be exact
But more like a nesting home that He has packed
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Told me He would never leave or forsake
Momma did tell me He’s leading the way
God's been good, but that's easy to say
Now I sing this song when I'm easily swayed
I’m saying-

[Chorus]
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it's been my whole life
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it's been my whole life, we say

[Post-Chorus]
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won't let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won't let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time
[Verse 2]
Uh, this whole time when I was doubting
You had a plan for the pain I was found in
I used to stand at the bottom of the mountain
You picked me up, gave me water from the fountain
'Cause You loved me when I couldn't even love myself
Had me when I thought that I lost my health
Kept me when misery was all I felt
I look back at the cards I dealt
And, my God, do I know now
I can't lie when it goes down
I thank God for showing me the way to go
And holding me so down, oh

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You told me You would never leave or forsake
Momma did say that You're leading the way
God's been good, now it's easy to say
Still, I sing this song when I'm easily swayed
I'm singing-

[Chorus]
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it's been my whole life
God loved me from a long time
He done showed me from a long time
I don't understand why it took so long
For me to know it's been my whole life, we say
[Post-Chorus]
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won't let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time
"Hallelujah" to the Most High
I won't let a day go by
Get my people on the phone line
'Cause God been good, man, this whole time
