Never Seen The Righteous - Donald Lawrence, The Tri-City Singers, Donald Lawrence And The Tri-City Singers

I was young and now I’m old

Seen a lot of situations unfold

Been a lot of places, met all kinds

But there’s one thing that stays on my mind

Out of all the things I’ve done

All the places I’ve gone

And the things I’ve seen

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken»

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken»

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken

Nor his seed begging bread»

You don’t have to worry about a thing

If you’re holy and righteous

You don’t have to worry about a thing

If you’re holy and righteous

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken»

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken»

Said, «I never seen the righteous forsaken

Nor his seed begging bread»

I never seen it
