Always Good | Lyric Video
Words by Samuel Rodigast
Music by Zach Gebert
------------
What God ordains is always good;
His will is just and holy.
As he directs my life for me,
I follow meek and lowly.
My God indeed In ev'ry need
Knows well how he will shield me, shield me;+
To him, then, I, to him, them, I,
to him, then, I will yield me yield me.
Good good good always good
Good good good always good
What God ordains is always good;
He never will deceive me.
He leads me in his righteous way
And never will he leave me.
I take content What he has sent;
His hand that sends me sadness sadness
Will turn my tears, will turn my tears
Will turn my tears to gladness gladness
Good good good always good
Good good good always good
What God ordains is always good;
He is my friend and Father.
He will not let me suffer harm
Though many storms may gather.
Now I may know Both joy and woe;
Some day I shall see clearly clearly
That he has loved that he loved
That he has loved me dearly dearly.
Good good good always good
Good good good always good
What God ordains is always good.
Though I the cup am drinking
Which savors now of bitterness,
I take it without shrinking.
For after grief God grants relief,
My heart with comfort filling filling
And all my sorrow and all my sorrow
And all my sorrow stilling stilling.
Good good good always good
Good good good always good
What God ordains is always good;
This truth remains unshaken.
Though sorrow, need, or death be mine,
I shall not be forsaken.
I fear no harm, For with his arm
He will embrace and shield me shield me
So to my God so to my God
So to my God I yield me yield me.
Good good good always good
Good good good always good
