Lyrics to song For The Love Of God by Josh Turner feat. Ricky Skaggs
Verse 1
Some folks will do anything for money
Cheat and lie and steal
Won't even take the time to go to church on Sunday
But they got plenty of time to make a deal
Chorus:
Please forgive me if I ever act like that
That ain't the way I wanna be
I pray every night that everything I do be for the love of God
For the love of God is why I try so hard
I ain't tryin' to win the praise of man
I live for the love of God
Verse 2
Some people only want to have a good time
Drinking and carryin' home
They get behind the wheel and the next thing you know
Somebody's child is gone
Chorus:
Please forgive me if I ever get that way
That ain't the way I wanna be
I pray every night that everything I do be for the love of God
For the love of God is why I try so hard
I ain't tryin' to win the praise of man
I live for the love of God
Outro
For the love of God is why I try so hard
I ain't tryin' to win the praise of man
I live for the love of God
I ain't tryin' to win the praise of man
I live for the love of God
