There’s a country song I hear at work every day It has a nice chorus that is easy to say But the truth that it tells is certain enough “Dad makes good whiskey but God makes the good stuff” The good stuff that God makes is stark in contrast To the whiskey that might be drunk from a flask It got me to thinking about all the things That the blessing of God to me each day brings Whiskey inebriates ‘til we’ve lost control God gives His Spirit to guide us all home Whiskey tastes bitter and softens the mind God’s word is sweet to the soul all the time Whiskey gives mornings when sickness will last God give the sunrise whose beauty is vast Whiskey makes evenings bewildered and blind God makes sunsets that are wonderfully fine Whiskey can make our decisions quite wrong God gives us wisdom to help us along Whiskey can cost us our lives after time God gives new life that’s eternally mine Whiskey will lead us down dangerous roads God guides us gently and carries our load Whiskey can bring us to a crash of the mind God keeps us safe in His arms all the time You see my dear friends that this song is true But the truth in its words I think hide from you All of this good stuff that God has in store Is only for you if you’ll give Him more More of your heart to Him every day More of your mind and more of your ways More of your strength needs to come from Him More of your soul must be cleansed within Today if that whiskey is lord of your life Why not give that up for the Lord Jesus Christ He will bless you beyond your wildest dreams Repent today and in Jesus believe

The Good Stuff
