I'm singing this song for the men in your prisons and jails
The junkies and juicers and every good man that fails
And for every outlaw who's got no place left to go The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so And I'm singing this song for the leaders of every land
For every political and every military man
And for every mother and child in their kingdoms below The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so
Ain't it sad that we're doing so bad I'm singing this song with the feeling that's deep in my heart
And I wish I could tear down the walls that keep us apart
I wish I could tear down the walls so the feelings can grow The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord, he loves you so The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you
The good lord loves you The good lord, he loves you so
Ain't it sad that we're doing so bad
