You Are Good
Jeremy Riddle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to scream it out
From every mountain top

Your goodness knows no bounds
Your goodness never stops
Your mercy follows me
Your kindness fills my life
Your love amazes me

I sing because You are good
And I dance because You are good
And I shout because You are good
You are good to me to me

Nothing and no one comes anywhere close to You
The earth and oceans deep only reflect this truth
And in my darkest night, you shine as bright as day
Your Love amazes me

With a cry of praise my heart will proclaim
You are good You are good
In the Sun or rain my life celebrates
You are good You are good

With a cry of praise my heart will proclaim
You are good You are good




In the Sun or rain my life celebrates
You are good You are good

Today my best friend, a big atheist that criticized my God shared me a Christian song saying that he loves it. I prayed for this moment since 4 years. Now I am patiently waiting the day he will give him his life. For the moment I just want to say God you are so good!
