So It Goes

The prayer goes up, the blessing comes down
Plant the seed and it goes round and round
Sparrow flies and falls to the ground
And He knows, so it goes, so it goes, so it goes

A friend is sick, pray and believe
Lift him up, down on your knees
Big or small, no matter your need
And He knows, so it goes, so it goes, so it goes

I've been walking this road for such a long time
He's been calling me His and I've been calling Him mine
Every promise He's made in His word has been true
Again and again and again

So it goes, so it goes
Every child of the Father knows
He's always faithful to His
That's just the way that He is
So it goes, so it goes

A promise made, a promise kept
When you need hope, He'll be your help
Your every breath, every thought, every step
He knows, so it goes, so it goes, so it goes

His character is never in doubt
Temptations come and he makes a way out
When you lose sight of what life's all about
He knows, so it goes, so it goes, so it goes

I've been walking this road for such a long time
He's been calling me His and I've been calling Him mine
Every promise He's made in His word has been true
Again and again and again

So it goes, so it goes
Every child of the Father knows
He's always faithful to His
That's just the way that He is
So it goes, so it goes
So it goes, so it goes

The prayer goes up, the blessing comes down
Come on down, aah-aah...
Ooh... mm-mm-mm-mm, yeah
