Intro
Glory to God - God alone - Sole' - De'o - Gloria - Here we go!
Chorus
If you've tasted and seen - then you know what I mean, He's
Good (carry)
In His nature is love – everything that he does, He's
Good
Even when it gets tough – yes the Lord is enough, He's
Good
Yes God makes it plain through the Lamb that was slain, He's
Good
Verse 1:
The world is not subtle, why should we be subliminal?
When it comes to goodness, our God is at the pinnacle
If God is approving it, then it's good – that's the principle
Humanity is minimal, the Lord is the original
Fountain of benevolence, boundless in measurement
Abounding in blessedness, there's mountains of evidence
Found in the Testaments, resounding these sentiments
We drown in His benefits, from town to the settlements
His goodness expressed in the natural and physical
From rocks and minerals, to toxic chemicals
Stop being cynical, not trying to be traditional
But God is good, all the time - no intervals
While doubters and pessimists, cloud what He represents
He smiles on the penitent, endowed us with residence
Now that we may commence, we shout without hesitance
Crown with excellency, now and forever friends

Verse 2:
Understand that God is good apart from anything He's done for me
Yet still His goodness has blessed me abundantly
I'll try to give a summary, beginning with His love for me
In sending Christ to die – yes – the blood of Jesus covers me
Our years, He can make em new
Our fears He's awakened to
He hears when we're praying and He's there when we our payments due
His Spirit enables you, to fear Him and praise Him through
The tears we can say is true – He's near when we're breaking through
Whether we are suffering our living in luxury
His works toward His people are all done lovingly
They're never done stubbornly, or with a hint of drudgery
Every single sunrise - provides a new discovery
It's clear what He came to do, see us like Isaiah knew
He'd appear as a baby who, was reared as a faithful Jew
And pierced for our shady crew, appeared in the painters view
So here's what we're meant to do – revere Him cause praise is due
Chorus
Verse 3:
Heed this and listen, the keys in the ignition
The goodness of God can be seen in His provision
In each of His decisions, his leaving the inscription
That it's needless and grievous just to keep Him in derision
It's cool to know that His goodness never changes – immutable
It's true when we can't explain this – He's inscrutable
And we are not delusional, these facts are indisputable
I know it sounds unusual, I'll show you how it's provable
Adam & Eve had freedom with one restriction
Satan deceived them - from Eden received conviction -
To leave us in the queezy condition with sleazy addictions
But Jesus' afflictions, free those believing His risen
God's got the seen of the cross, irrefutable
On His gospel truth we will stand – immovable
And glorify God for His goodness, it's suitable
Just cause it's a duty? No, just because He's beautiful
