Good

You are able

To save us from the fire.

You are able

To calm the violent storm.

So we ask you, Lord, 

Deliver us from evil!

Let us see your goodness again!

But if by some mystery of your grace

We’re called to walk through flames,

Our lips will still proclaim:


You are good,

Though we can’t see past the darkness.

You are good, 

When we’re lost within the sea.

You are good,

Though our hearts begin to fail us.

You have not abandoned us,

For you are good.


With a word,

You can raise the dead to life

And bring peace

To a world consumed by war.

So we ask you, Lord, 

Revive our hearts from grieving.

Let us see you reigning on earth!

Yet if by some mystery of your ways,

Your tarry to return,

Our hearts will still proclaim:


You are good,

Though we’re walking through the valley.

You are good,

When we weep beside the tomb.

You are good,

Though grief and pain surround us.

You have not forgotten us,

For you are good.


As we walk,

Keep our eyes upon your promise. 

As we weep,

Turn our hearts to hope in you.

Oh, we ask you, Lord,

Give us hearts that trust your goodness 

While our lives are torn by sin and death

You will love and keep us till the very end,

Our song will  always be:


You are good!

You delivered us from evil.

You are good! 

All your promises are true.

You are good!

Giving life to those who trust you.

You have never forsaken.

You are good!
