Real Good Thing

When we don't get what we deserve,
That's a real good thing, real good thing.
When we get what we don't deserve,
That's a real good thing, real good thing.


Born to sin and then get caught,
All our good deeds don't mean squat.
Sell the Volvo, shred the Visa,
Send the cash to Ma Theresa.
Great idea, the only catch is,
You don't get saved on merit badges!


Doctor's coming, looking grim,
"Do you have a favorite hymn?"
Check your balance through the years,
All accounts are in arrears.
Guilt is bitter, grace is sweet,
Park it here on the mercy seat.
