When the Sun starts to rise and I open my eyes
You are Good, So Good
In the heat of the day with each stone that I lay
You are so Good
With every breath I take in
I'll tell You I'm grateful again
When the moon climbs high
before each kiss good night
You are Good
When the road starts to turn around each bend I've learned
You are good, So Good
And when somebody's hand holds me up, helps me stand
You are...So Good
With every breath I take in, I'll tell You I'm grateful again
'Cause It's more than enough just to know I am loved
and You are Good
So how can I thank You? What can I bring?
What can these poor hands lay at the feet of the King?
So I'll sing You a love song.
It's all that I have to tell You
I'm grateful for holding my life in Your hands.
You are Good, So Good
When the world has gone gray and the rain's here to stay
You are STILL Good
With every breath I take in I'll tell You I'm grateful again
Though the storms they may swell, even then it is well and
You are Good
So how can I thank You? What can I bring?
What can these poor hands lay at the feet of the King?
So I'll sing You a love song.
It's all that I have to tell You
I'm grateful for holding my life in Your hands
You are holding my life in Your hands
As I sat listening to this song I thought of the many times that I complain to God about the tiniest thing that goes wrong in my life. I just throw up my hands and say, "It's not fair God!"
Whereas, it's not uncommon to read in the news day after day about people living without one square meal a day, struggling to make an income, don't have the luxury of a house, not blessed with a child for years, and the list goes on.
How can I even grumble when I am so immensely blessed. I have a lesson to learn from the Israelites who had to spend 40 years in the wilderness as a consequence of their choice to rebel against God. I have made a choice.... to be grateful.
God is good. He is so, so GOOD!
