Lyrics
We worship You hallelujah, hallelujah
We worship You
We worship You
For who You are
For who You are
For who You are
You are good
You are good all the time
All the time You are good
You are good all the time
All the time You are good
You are good all the time
All the time You are good
Oh that men would praise His name
Praise His name
To the ends of the earth
And again I say, Rejoice!
In the Lord always
And again I say, again I say
Rejoice!

Meaning & Inspiration
The song builds its praise around the unchanging goodness of God. Repeated lines about worship and the constancy of divine goodness give the lyric a congregational character, allowing a simple confession to become sustained thanksgiving. The movement from hallelujah to a call for praise across the earth broadens the focus from a local gathering to a universal invitation. Repetition serves the message by emphasizing that the character of God remains worthy of praise at every moment.
The language closely reflects several biblical calls to worship. Psalm 100 joins the goodness of the Lord with enduring mercy, while Psalm 107 repeatedly summons people to thank Him for that goodness. The closing appeal to rejoice in the Lord echoes the direct command in Philippians. Together, those themes present worship as a fitting response to who God is, not merely to favorable circumstances. The song therefore holds praise, thanksgiving, and joy together, returning each idea to the central declaration that God is good all the time.
