I've Never Seen The Righteous Forsaken

I've Never Seen The Righteous Forsaken

O, I know you may get weary,

And the times they may get rough.

You may not have all you want,

But you'll always have enough.

And when your darkest hour comes,

Just remember what I say:

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

Or their seed begging for bread!

O, I know it seems so hopeless,

And you don't know what to pray.

You've done all you know to do,

And it seems there's just no way.

And when you feel you're at the end,

Just remember what I say:

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

Or their seed begging for bread!

I've never seen God's people

With a need that He could not meet!

I know that He cares for His own,

And His promises He'll keep.

So just hold on a little longer

The answer's soon to come.

The endless waiting's almost over,

The vict'ry's almost won.

And when again you feel His joy,

You'll remember what I said:

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

Or their seed begging for bread!

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

I've never seen the righteous forsaken,

Or their seed begging for bread.
