I heard about the goodness of God
Such goodness can’t be found
In natural humans no natural person can afford
I heard about the kindness of God
How could one give his life for his enemy
Paid for my crimes even before I could call
Now I know the goodness of God
I’ve tasted and known the goodness of God
Oh irresistible, undeniable
the depth of your love
I know for myself
I Can’t fully comprehend
But I’ve come to know that God
God is good
At times I have felt most undeserving
Times I felt most unforgiven
You told me you’d forgiven me already
I could come home.
At times when I felt so ashamed
I didn’t want to draw near I was afraid
You told me “I hadn’t caught the truth about Your Love yet; I had no idea”
Now I know the goodness of God
I’ve tasted and known the goodness of God
Oh irresistible, undeniable
the depth of your love
I know for myself
Can’t fully comprehend
But I’ve come to know that God
God is good
Too good to be true yet it’s true
Too good to be real yet it’s real
I heard and I believed
I heard, I believed and now
Standing in the presence of the most Holy
Yet erasing all feelings of unholy
My mind remembering every failure I’ve had
But You tell me there’s no failure that stands
My God is good
I’ve come to know this God is good
