    If a good man brings me water when I am thirsty, or if a bad man brings me water when I am thirsty......I thank God for the water...

    Beautiful delivery! So refreshing to be able to hear someone sing the lyrics of this song without oversinging and over coloring it with excessive runs. Sweet sound to my ears!

    [Verse1:]
    I've had some good days
    I've had some hills to climb
    I've had some weary days
    And some sleepless nights
    But when I look around
    And I think things over
    All of my good days
    Out-weigh my bad days
    I won't complain
    [Verse2:]
    Sometimes the clouds are low
    I can hardly see the road
    I ask a question, Lord
    Lord, why so much pain?
    But he knows what's best for me
    Although my weary eyes
    They can't see
    So I'll just say thank you Lord
    I won't complain
    [Chorus:]
    The Lord Has been so good to me
    He's been good to me
    More than this old world or you could ever be
    He's been so good, To me
    He dried all of my tears away
    Turned my midnights into day
    So I'll just say thank you Lord
    [Adlib:]
    I've been lied on
    But thank you Lord
    I've been talked about
    But thank you Lord
    I've been misunderstood
    But thank you Lord
    You might be sick
    Body reeking with pain
    But thank you Lord
    The bills are due
    Don't know where the money coming from
    But thank you Lord
    Thank you Lord
    Thank you Lord
    [Chorus:]
    I want to thank God
    Has been so good to me
    He's been good to me
    More than this old world or you could ever be
    He's been so good
    He's been so good
    He's been so good
    So good
    So good
    So good
    So good
    To me
    He dried all of my tears away
    Turned my midnight into day
    [Ending:]
    So I'll just say thank you Lord
    I won't complain

    @TawandaLynn 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He's kills this song!!! Very melodic, beautiful, simplistic, and the thing w/ this song is that people feel the need to scream it rather than to sing it so we can actually here the words... This is awesome

  • @clancymamou
    @clancymamou 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    am blown away by this! My late uncle, Rev. Paul Jones is the creator of the deeply inspirational song and everyone and there mother has been triying to make it thier own since he was murded back in 1990....left this world before he could get the copyrights to it. My grandmother has yet to see a penny of ANY dues from her son's work. Just a shame how people can claim to be Christians and yet find it in their hearts to capitalize off something that the true creator will never get due credit for.

    JOhn is so mellow it is a version that you can listen to when you are trying to relax and kick back. The blessing is truly in his voice so pure. No Oprah doesn't discuss God on her show but she doesn't have that type of show and it doesn't mean she's not a Christian. I find those who flaunt it are phony.

  • @2008capricorn
    @2008capricorn 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    The one thing i love about John Legend iz that he never forgets where his roots came from. Some ppl will sit in judgement and say "Well he has the voice for GOSPEL, why wont he sing it" It's all a struggle and it's all a purpose. His talent iz something that iz anointed even if he does sing Green Light or PDA or Ordinary PPL don't look at him for that. Listen to his testimony, all these ppl all in his business but still yet ladies and gentlemen. "John Legend Wont Complain" Amen somebodi!!!

  • @Hangen55
    @Hangen55 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Regardless of religious affiliation, I think everyone should be able to enjoy this song. I wish there were more musicians with the talent john legend has who are able to sing a song like this. So much more meaningful than what a lot of popular artists put out there.

    Some people have to have find negativity in everything. Instead of people being happy that he sung a gospel song on national television, they are hating. This song touched me and for all we know it could have led someone to Christ who watched it on television. I thought the most important thing was to spread the good news. By the way God sees us how were gonna be. He might change and sing gospel, stop looking at the past and present, and take a look at the future. Instead of criticizing, pray!

    I love this version. It is beautiful and not forced. It is peaceful and melodious. I am a devout Christian, and a music lover. I will not judge John Legend. That is not our place as followers of Christ. Even the worst sinner should thank God for all that the Lord has done. We have work to do. There's no time to complain or judge, especially with regard to style.

  • @SteelCityMagnolia
    @SteelCityMagnolia 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    That blessed me. I'm happy he knows where his "roots" are. He has such a special gift. When I was finding my voice as a singer, that's when he released his first album. His style has influenced me so much, even as a female vocalist....I would LOVE to see if he did a gospel album in the future.

  • @wheresmynurse
    @wheresmynurse 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    He has gifts to share. This is education that he puts into his songs, his work, what he really feels and knows. He is my favorite, absoutely! His talents arent shame. They are just who is. We cant complain on that. Alot of us just love him. No doubt his family and God wont complain on that either.

  • @Jude1930
    @Jude1930 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    It doesn't matter what a person experiences in life. Good or bad just b glad that God is still good and his mercies are limitless. Doesn't matter what you've done he still forgives and saves. Doesn't matter what situation we're he can deliver. We just need to have a no matter what it is praise or worship.
