the cradle and the grave - karen peck & new river lyrics

saved

my daddy was an honest man
with a tender heart and calloused hands
he loved his kids, he loved his wife
he lived such a good life
he didn’t drink or cheat or lie
so none of us understood why
he one day bowed his head and prayed
“lord, take my sin away”
’til he stood to his feet
and he looked at me and said
good ain’t good enough
for god is holy and heaven’s only
for the one’s washed in the blood
you can live by the letter
but you sure ‘nough better get saved
somewhere between
(saved)
the cradle and the grave

now you may try to live your days
by the golden rule and the narrow way
you hit the mark and walk the line
and say you’re doin’ fine
you long for peace you’ve never had
and hope your good outweighs the bad
but if you’ve not been born again
you’ll still die in your sin

’cause good ain’t good enough
for god is holy and heaven’s only
for the one’s washed in the blood
you can live by the letter
but you sure ‘nough better get saved
somewhere between
(saved)
the cradle and the grave
good ain’t good enough
for god is holy and heaven’s only
for the one’s washed in the blood
you can live by the letter
but you sure ‘nough better get saved

good ain’t good enough
for god is holy and heaven’s only
for the one’s washed in the blood
(sure ‘nough, sure ‘nough, sure ‘nough)
you can live by the letter
but you sure ‘nough better get saved

sure ‘nough, sure ‘nough
sure ‘nough better get saved
