God Is Good

Representative Text

1 God is good! I will not fear
The trials that await me here;
His promises are true and sure;
His Word forever must endure.

Refrain:
O blessèd hope, O joy indeed,
His mercy covers all my need!
God is good! His love to me
Is broad and boundless as the sea.

2 God is good! His hand supplies;
I cannot need what He denies.
I’ll trust His love from day to day,
And follow where He leads the way. [Refrain]

3 God is good! He will not fail,
Tho’ Satan’s fiery darts assail;
I trust His grace from hour to hour,
And do not fear the tempter’s power. [Refrain]
