Outro
Give thanks to the Lord
Give thanks to the Lord
Give thanks to the Lord
Give thanks to the Lord
Give thanks to the Lord
For He is good and His love endures forever
God is good, not because of what He does, but because of who He is
He is a good God, and who He is never changes
He's a good, good Father, He's a good God
So give Him praise tonight, give Him praise tonight
Come on ? people, give Him praise tonight
Give all the praise to the Lord, give Him all the glory
There is none like You, Father
You are good, You are a good God

Meaning & Inspiration
“All I’m After” joins wholehearted surrender with a steady confession of God’s goodness. The verses describe mercy as unending, God’s thoughts as abundant, and his presence as faithful through darkness. Those images support the recurring chorus rather than treating goodness as a passing feeling: God is called good because his character and promises remain constant.
The bridge narrows that praise into personal devotion. Nothing is held back, and the deepest desire is directed toward God himself rather than merely toward his gifts. The closing invitation to give thanks develops language closely associated with Psalm 136:1, where God’s goodness and enduring love are proclaimed together. The reference to divine thoughts outnumbering the stars also echoes Psalm 139:17-18. Across its repeated lines, the song moves naturally from trust to surrender and then to thanksgiving, portraying worship as a response to mercy, guidance, faithfulness, and an unchanging identity.
