In 2008, after five solo album releases, and nine with Passion, Tomlin made the move from Texas to Atlanta to be a worship leader for Giglio’s new church, Passion City Church, with its first service being held in February of 2009. Tomlin has since released four solo worship albums, two Christmas albums, and one live album.
In 2013, Tomlin’s seventh album Burning Light debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart, becoming only the fourth album by a Christian artist to top that chart, along with Butterfly Kisses (Shades of Grace) by Bob Carlisle, You Light Up My Life by LeeAnn Rimes, both in 1997, and TobyMac's Eye On It in 2012.
Tomlin has recorded some of the most famous songs ever in Christian music, such as How Great Is Our God, Holy Is The Lord, Our God, and Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)
Throughout his successful career, Tomlin has won 22 GMA Dove Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, and a Grammy.

Good Good Father
Chris Tomlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I've heard the tender whispers of love in the dead of night
And you tell me that you're pleased
And that I'm never alone
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
I've seen many searching for answers far and wide
But I know we're all searching
For answers only you provide
'Cause you know just what we need
Before we say a word
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
Because you are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us
Oh, it's love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
Into love, love, love
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
You are perfect in all of your ways
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
You are perfect in all of your ways
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
The song "Good Good Father" by Chris Tomlin is a beautiful representation of the relationship between God and his devotees. Tomlin starts off by saying that he has heard a thousand stories of God and how people perceive Him. However, he stresses that despite hearing all that, he knows that God is a loving and caring father who speaks to him tenderly, especially when he is feeling alone. This verse speaks volumes about how Tomlin feels completely secure in God's love for him and how God is always there to comfort him.
In the next verse, Tomlin speaks about how people are constantly searching for answers to life's questions, but he believes that God is the only one who can give them the answers they seek. He also says that God knows precisely what we need even before we ask for it. This verse highlights the importance of prayer in our lives and how it can bring us closer to God.
The chorus of the song emphasizes God's goodness and the deep love that He has for us. Tomlin repeats several times that God is a good father who loves us, proving that God is a consistent source of love and support in our lives. Tomlin talks about the 'undeniable love' God has for us, and we take solace in this love as we continue to grow and evolve into the people He wants us to be.
Overall, "Good Good Father" is a beautiful song that reminds us of God's love for us, His presence in our lives, and how He guides us to become the best versions of ourselves.

If you have a bible read John 3:16 For God so loved the world He gave His Only Begotten Son (Jesus). That whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
You and all of us are a whosoever!
John 1:1 In the beging was the Word (Jesus) and the Word was with God and the Word was God.
John 1:12 But as many as received Him gave them power to become the sons of God. Even to those who believe on His name.
The reason this touches you is because you are feeling the love of the Living God. May I ask do you have these same feelings when you hear of things of allah? I pray that you will realize God's love like you never have before and that you can see the sacrifice Jesus made for you and I and all on the cross.
