[Intro: Warryn Campbell / (Beyoncé)]
Yo, check it out
Yeah, we gon' do a little something different here (Ooh, oh)
It's Mary Mary y'all, and Destiny's Child (Oh, yeah)
Let me see you clap your hands (Ah, ah, ah)
I wanna see you clap your hands (Ah)
Let me see you clap your hands (Yeah, yeah)

[Verse 1: Erica Campbell]
Growing up in a real big family
I had to take what I could get
There was always a sister or brother
I had to share everything with
I had to share my room, wear hand-me-downs
'Cause we didn't have much money
Now there's not much I long for
Tellin' you God's been good to me, oh no no
[Chorus: Mary Mary with Destiny's Child / (Erica Campbell)]
No, no (No, no)
It ain't the way it used to be and (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I, oh, I'm (Oh, I'm)
Tellin' you God's been good to me
[Verse 2: Kelly Rowland]
You may think I've got it easy
And that's the way it's always been
But that's not really my story
I'll tell you how it all happened
I had to work real hard to get here
But I didn't do it all alone
Someone was watching over me
And that is why I sing this song, oh no
[Chorus: Mary Mary with Destiny's Child / (Kelly Rowland)]
No, no (Oh no, no no)
It ain't the way it used to be and (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It may be hard to believe (And when)
When, when (When, when, when)
I think about all my blessings (Oh, I)
I, oh, I'm (Oh, I'm)
Tellin' you God's been good to me
[Bridge: Mary Mary / (Tina Campbell) / (Beyoncé)]
If I began to count my blessings (I wouldn't know where)
I wouldn't know where to begin (God has)
God has done so much for me (Ooh, ooh)
He's been much more than a friend (Than a friend)
He's a protector and provider (A provider)
Though I didn't always know (Hey)
Always been right beside me (Oh)
And without him, where would I be?
[Break: Beyoncé / Erica Campbell]
Whoop, whoa, whoop, whoa, whoop, ooh
Been good to me, so good to me
So good to me, so good to me, oh
Whoop, whoa, whoop, whoa, whoop, ooh
So good to me, so good to me
And it ain't the way it used to be, oh no
[Chorus: Mary Mary with Destiny's Child / (Erica Campbell) / (Beyoncé)]
