Only God In Heaven Knows

If you want some love

You’d better love someone

A little appreciation

Never waste not want


So when you wake in the morning

Wipe that smile on your face

And thank the Lord in heaven

For his saving grace


If you want some peace

In peace you’ll have to live

When anger people coming

Lock the door, don’t let them in


If you want to be happy

An enjoy a really good life

Put in some hard work 

And plenty sacrifice


And you’ll be ready to go

Ready for the show…

For whatever’s coming your way...

Only God in heavens knows...

So great, Arturo! Unfortunately we can’t avoid all unpleasant people but we can encourage as many people as we can. I love: wipe that smile on your face!

I love your part, "Lock the door, don’t let them in." Yes, sometimes this is the only way. Maybe an extra lock.

This part is so wise; so incredibly wise: "When anger people coming Lock the door, don’t let them in" It takes awhile for us to get it, but when we do, we DO! Great job, Arturo!
