Goodly Parents

Verse 1

Born of goodly parents

I was taught the learning of my father

Many afflictions crossed my road

Still I walked on favored ground

Pre-Chorus

Knowledge of goodness

Knowledge of mysteries

I write it down

Chorus

I make a record of my days

I make a record of my days

Every trial every grace

I make a record of my days

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh write it down

Oh-oh write it down

Verse 2

Highly favored all my days

Through the sorrow through the wondering

Great and deep the things I learned

So I keep the pages turning

Pre-Chorus

Knowledge of goodness

Knowledge of mysteries

I write it down

Chorus

I make a record of my days

I make a record of my days

Every trial every grace

I make a record of my days

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh write it down

Oh-oh write it down

Bridge

Faithful through the famine

Faithful through the flood

Faithful when the road was long

Faithful in the blood

Chorus

I make a record of my days

I make a record of my days

Every trial every grace

I make a record of my days

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh write it down

Oh-oh write it down
