Lyrics
Seasons come and seasons go
But your love remains the same
You said I'll never be alone
And You've kept your promise to me
So I'll stay on the way
And I'll fix my eys on You Lord
And if I sway You'll bring me back to You
You're so merciful and kind
That's why I'm singing
Lord You are so good
Lord You are kind
Lord You are wonderful
My God You are excellent
Excellent is Your name
Excellent is Your power
Lord You are wonderful
My God You are excellent
My God You are excellent
I've searched all over
There is nobody greater
Nobody stronger
My God You are excellent
One day in Your house
Better is one day in your courts
My God You are excellent
You are good and Your mercy is forever
And forever and ever and ever
My God You are excellent
Nobody else but You
None can compare to You
In all the earth
My God You are excellent
Lord You are so good
Lord You are kind
Lord You are wonderful
My God You are excellent
Excellent is Your name
Excellent is Your power
Lord You are wonderful
My God You are excellent

Meaning & Inspiration
“God You Are So Good” is built around praise for God’s steady love, mercy, kindness, and excellence. The opening verse contrasts changing circumstances with divine faithfulness, then describes a life kept on the right path through fixed attention on the Lord. Its repeated chorus uses simple declarations rather than a detailed narrative, allowing gratitude to remain central. The later lines widen that praise by affirming that no one is greater or stronger and that none in all the earth compares with God.
Several phrases closely echo Scripture. “Better is one day in your courts” comes from Psalm 84:10, where a single day in God’s courts is valued above a thousand elsewhere. The declaration that God is good and that his mercy endures forever reflects Psalm 136:1. The assurance of never being alone also aligns with Hebrews 13:5, which records God’s promise never to leave or forsake his people. Together, these references ground the song’s praise in God’s enduring presence and covenant faithfulness.
