Lesson 11: Looking for Good (David Hunt)
Verse 1:
I’ve got excellence as my goal
But I’ve got a long, long way to go
And I know it helps me on my way
When I see the good in every day
So if I see something you do wrong
I won’t sing about it in this song
I won’t talk about it with my friends
I won’t even think about it again
Chorus:
I’ll look at the good in you
I’ll look at the good in you
I know that you’d want me to
‘Cause that’s what I’d want you to do
And God looks for the good in me
He looks for the good in me
And when I put a cover
On those little faults of others
I hope God will put a cover on my faults too
Verse 2:
‘Abdu’l-Bahá was very wise
He saw your heart inside your eyes
And when He noticed something wrong
He’d find some way to make you strong

I know just what I have to do
I won’t go tell anybody else
No, I won’t even tell myself
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
Coda:
And when I put a cover
On those little faults of others
I hope God will put a cover on my faults too!
