Have you ever been hungry and Jesus wouldn't feed you? Have you ever needed Him and He just didn't need you? Have you ever seen someone who was down and out That our Jesus just didn't care about? Well, I've you ever seen the righteous forsaken I've you ever seen the righteous forsaken No, I've you ever seen the righteous forsaken Or God's seed begging for bread Now, you may feel down today But look up, your help is on the way Dark clouds may dim your sky But He will answer you by and by He'll drive away all your fears I know, he's been with me down through the years Oh, I've never seen the righteous forsaken Or God's seed begging for bread Has he ever passed you by, when you needed a savior? Has he ever one time ignored your cry When you asked him for a favor? Has he ever once, turned his back on you? No, when you need the Lord, He'll see you through Oh, I've never seen the righteous forsaken Or God's seed begging for bread Now, you may feel down today But look up, your help is on the way Dark clouds may dim your sky But He'll answer you by and by He's blessed you once, he'll bless you twice I know, I've had His blessings for all of my life Oh, I've never seen the righteous forsaken Or God's seed begging for bread You may feel down today But look up, your help is on the way Dark clouds may dim your sky But He'll answer you by and by If you take one step, he'll take two There is no secret what our Lord can do I've never seen the righteous forsaken I've never seen the righteous forsaken I've never seen the righteous forsaken Or God's seed begging for bread
