Why can't we be humble, like the good lord say
He promised to exault us, but no-one is away
How men be so greedy, when there's so much left
All things are God given and they all have been blessed

That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be
That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be

Let not your heart be troubled, let mourning sobbing cease
Learn to help one another and live in perfect peace
If we'd just be humbler, like the good lord say
He promised to exault us, but love is the way

That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be
You better believe me
That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be

I hope you get this message, where you won't others will
You don't understand me, but I'll love you still

That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be

You better believe me
That's the way
That's the way
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That's the way God planned it
That's the way God wants it to be, be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.....
