You oughtta’ do what I’m tellin’ you - trust the Lord in what He can do
Listen while I tell you friend how to get through thick and thin

If you’re gonna cross the widest rivers – a man can ever cross
The water’s swift all the time – leaves a man in awe
But wading in just gets you wet – you gotta’ go deeper in
To cross the widest rivers – and get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

If you’re gonna’ get to the top of the highest mountain – a man can ever climb
May be steep and out of reach – you don’t know till you try
Once you get up to the top – you can look down to where you’ve been
When you climb the highest mountain – and get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

Thick and thin – through thick and thin
Your journey will be easier – if you listen to me friend

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - trust the Lord and what he can do
Come on along with me my friend – we’ll get through thick and thin

Runaway Train

Thick And Thin

I hear the sound of laughter as I open that front door
Family gathered round that big oak table once more
It’s a Sunday thing - that’s everything

Daddy says I’m hungry everybody find your place
Just like every Sunday we begin by saying grace
Heads bowed down - hands joined round

Sunday supper with the family
Ain’t no better way to tell a week - goodbye
Sittin’ ‘round a table catchin’ up
With the people that you love - good time
What this world needs is a lot more family Sunday suppers

Brother is relieved he wasn’t laid off work last week
Sister and her husband say they’re finally gonna be
A mom and dad - everybody’s glad

Sunday supper with the family
Ain’t no better way to tell a week goodbye
Sittin’ ‘round a table catchin’ up
With the people that you love - good time
What this world needs is a lot more family - Sunday suppers

Mama says her chemo’s down to just one more treatment left
Before she starts another round of all them pesky tests
Then daddy jokes - that’s how he copes

Sunday supper with the family
Ain’t no better way to tell a week goodbye
Sittin’ ‘round a table catchin’ up
With the people that you love - good time
What this world needs is a lot more Andy G.
What this world needs is a lot more Mayberry
What this world needs is a lot more family - Sunday suppers

I hear the sound of laughter as I open that front door

Sunday Supper
